Summary

IBM has announced a release for IBM Security Identity Governance and Intelligence (IGI) in response to security vulnerabilities 3 issues for Postgresql: 1 for a flaw in the search_path setting2, 1 for a failure to check the host name if a host name verifier was not provided to the driver and 1 for a flaw in the COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM function.

Vulnerability Details

CVEID:CVE-2018-1058
**DESCRIPTION:**Postgresql could allow a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw in the search_path setting. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of superuser in the database.
CVSS Base score: 6.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/139844 for the current score.
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)

CVEID:CVE-2018-10936
**DESCRIPTION:**Postgresql is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack, caused by the failure to check the host name if a host name verifier was not provided to the driver. By using a specially-crafted SSL certificate, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to launch a man-in-the-middle attack and gain access to the communication channel between endpoints to obtain sensitive information.
CVSS Base score: 5.9

CVEID:CVE-2019-9193
**DESCRIPTION:**PostgreSQL could allow a local authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a flaw in the COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM function. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code in the context of the database’s operating system user.
