Update to Apache Subversion 1.8.11

We are glad to announce the availability of patch releases for VisualSVN products based on Apache Subversion 1.8.11. Besides various client side and server side improvements, the Subversion 1.8.11 patch release addresses the CVE-2014-3580 and CVE-2014-8108 security vulnerabilities. Maintenance builds based on Subversion 1.7.19 with similar fixes are available too.

Up-to-date VisualSVN Server installations are potentially affected by both CVE-2014-3580 and CVE-2014-8108 security vulnerabilities that could lead to a DoS attack. In order to exploit these vulnerabilities an attacker must have read access to a repository so the overall risks for VisualSVN users are relatively low (because VisualSVN Server in its default configuration does not support anonymous access to repositories). Nevertheless, we highly recommend upgrading to the new builds.
