Summary
CVSWeb is used by hosts to share programming source code. Some web sites are misconfigured and allow access to their sensitive source code without any password protection. This plugin tries to detect the presence of a CVSWeb CGI and when it finds it, it tries to obtain its version.
Solution
Solution
Restrict the access to this CGI using password protection or disable it if you do not use it.
