Shiela is a logging and access control tool designed for Concurrent Versions System (CVS) use.
OSSP shiela is an access control and logging software designed to be used with the Concurrent Versions System (CVS). It enables users to control access on a path and branch basis to particular repository users and user groups. By hooking into CVS's processing through the $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/xxxinfo callbacks, OSSP shiela provides a secure and reliable way to handle repository operations.
In addition to access control, it also monitors and logs repository operations. Users can configure logging messages individually on a module path and branch basis. Messages can be saved to files and/or delivered by Email. With OSSP shiela, there is no need to worry about unauthorized users accessing your repository or not being able to track changes made to the repository.
The latest release of OSSP shiela includes several security fixes and upgrades. The release addresses an "arbitrary shell command execution" security bug caused by missing shell command argument escaping for user-supplied arguments (CVE-2006-3633). The build environment has also been upgraded to GNU shtool 2.0.6 and GNU autoconf 2.60.
Overall, OSSP shiela is a reliable and secure software that provides efficient access control and logging features to CVS users. It ensures that your repository remains protected from unauthorized access and provides complete visibility into all repository operations.
