Sebastien Delafond reports:

Jakub Palaczynski discovered that websvn, a web viewer for Subversion repositories, does not correctly sanitize user-supplied input, which allows a remote user to run reflected cross-site scripting attacks.

< 2.3.3_1

Secunia reports:

Some vulnerabilities have been reported in WebSVN, which can be exploited by malicious users to disclose sensitive information, and by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks and manipulate data.

Input passed in the URL to index.php is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

Input passed to the "rev" parameter in rss.php is not properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to overwrite arbitrary files via directory traversal attacks.

Access to restricted repositories is not properly enforced, which can be exploited to disclose potentially sensitive information by accessing the repository via "listing.php" and using the "compare with previous" and "show changed files" links.

< 2.1.0

Thijs Kinkhorst reports:

James Clawson reported:

"Arbitrary files with a known path can be accessed in websvn by committing a symlink to a repository and then downloading the file (using the download link).

An attacker must have write access to the repo, and the download option must have been enabled in the websvn config file."
