## Description

scponly 4.6 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to bypass
intended restrictions and execute code by invoking dangerous subcommands
including (1) unison, (2) rsync, (3) svn, and (4) svnserve, as originally
demonstrated by creating a Subversion (SVN) repository with malicious
hooks, then using svn to trigger execution of those hooks.
