Summary

The mod_dav_svn Apache HTTPD server module in Apache Subversion 1.7.x before 1.7.19 and 1.8.x before 1.8.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via a request for a URI that triggers a lookup for a virtual transaction name that does not exist.
