Peter Samuelson uploaded new packages for subversion which fixed the
following security problems:
CVE-2010-3315
When "SVNPathAuthz short_circuit" is enabled, authz authentication in
the mod_dav_svn module for the Apache HTTP Server is flawed. Remote
authenticated users can bypass intended access restrictions via svn
commands.

For the lenny-backports distribution, the problem has been fixed in
version 1.6.12dfsg-2~bpo50+1.
For the current testing (squeeze) and unstable (sid) distributions, the
problem has been fixed in version 1.6.12dfsg-2.
Upgrade instructions

If you don't use pinning (see [1]) you have to update the package

the packagelist of your installed packages affected by this update.

We recommend to pin the backports repository to 200 so that new
versions of installed backports will be installed automatically.
