CVE-2011-5221

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WebSVN versions prior to 2.3.1

Description A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue exists in the getLog function in svnlook.php, allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the path parameter to API endpoints such as "comp.php", "diff.php", or "revision.php".

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.3.1, update to version 2.3.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the vulnerable API endpoints "comp.php", "diff.php", and "revision.php" until the update is applied. Avoid using the path parameter in these endpoints until the issue is resolved.
