csv injection

If the csv file cell value uses formulas, it is often to see csv injection. For instance, if the cell value is  =cmd|' calc'!A0 which will launch calculator.

To prevent csv injection attack, you need either filtering or neutralizing the spreadsheet meta-characters used to define formulas. These 4 characters are +, -, =, and @

Filter is to remove the meta-characters if see excel cell value beginning with one of these 4 characters.

Neutralize is to precede cell values that begin with the characters: +, -, =, or @ with a single quote. This is called “escaping” or “neutralizing” the characters to have excel cell value interpreted as data instead of formulas.

An unknown Subversion error occurred. (code = 155037)

Suddenly my Mac Versions app starts to report "An unknown Subversion error occurred. (code = 155037)" when access SVN repository. This error is very generic and useless to help me troubleshoot the root cause.

Google took me to this blog

But I didn't update svn version or change Versions' settings, so I am thinking of other ways. Finally I figured out svn cleanup then svn update will help resolve this error.
