Several local vulnerabilities have been discovered in PostgreSQL, an object-relational SQL database. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :
CVE-2010-1169 Tim Bunce discovered that the implementation of the procedural language PL/Perl insufficiently restricts the subset of allowed code, which allows authenticated users the execution of arbitrary Perl code.
CVE-2010-1170 Tom Lane discovered that the implementation of the procedural language PL/Tcl insufficiently restricts the subset of allowed code, which allows authenticated users the execution of arbitrary Tcl code.
CVE-2010-1975 It was discovered that an unprivileged user could reset superuser-only parameter settings.
