Package : viewvc
Version : 1.1.26-1+deb10u1
CVE IDs : CVE-2023-22456 CVE-2023-22464

It was discovered that there were two issues in viewvc, a web-based
interface for browsing Subversion and CVS repositories. The attack
vectors involved files with unsafe names; names that, when embedded
into an HTML stream, could cause the browser to run unwanted code.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version
1.1.26-1+deb10u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your viewvc packages.
