NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream subversion package and not the subversion package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The req_check_access function in the mod_authz_svn module in the httpd server in Apache Subversion before 1.8.16 and 1.9.x before 1.9.4 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and crash) via a crafted header in a (1) MOVE or (2) COPY request, involving an authorization check.
