AXSA:2010-289:01 advisory.
PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system (DBMS) that supports almost all SQL
constructs (including transactions, subselects and user-defined types and functions). The postgresql
package includes the client programs and libraries that you'll need to access a PostgreSQL DBMS server.
These PostgreSQL client programs are programs that directly manipulate the internal structure of
PostgreSQL databases on a PostgreSQL server. These client programs can be located on the same machine with
the PostgreSQL server, or may be on a remote machine which accesses a PostgreSQL server over a network
connection. This package contains the docs in HTML for the whole package, as well as command-line
utilities for managing PostgreSQL databases on a PostgreSQL server.
If you want to manipulate a PostgreSQL database on a remote PostgreSQL server, you need this package. You
also need to install this package if you're installing the postgresql-server package.
Security issues fixed with this release:
CVE-2009-4136
PostgreSQL 7.4.x before 7.4.27, 8.0.x before 8.0.23, 8.1.x before 8.1.19, 8.2.x before 8.2.15, 8.3.x
before 8.3.9, and 8.4.x before 8.4.2 does not properly manage session-local state during execution of an
index function by a database superuser, which allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges via a
table with crafted index functions, as demonstrated by functions that modify (1) search_path or (2) a
prepared statement, a related issue to CVE-2007-6600 and CVE-2009-3230.
CVE-2010-0442
The bitsubstr function in backend/utils/adt/varbit.c in PostgreSQL 8.0.23, 8.1.11, and 8.3.8 allows remote
authenticated users to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or have unspecified other impact via
vectors involving a negative integer in the third argument, as demonstrated by a SELECT statement that
contains a call to the substring function for a bit string, related to an 'overflow.'
CVE-2010-0733
Integer overflow in src/backend/executor/nodeHash.c in PostgreSQL 8.4.1 and earlier, and 8.5 through
8.5alpha2, allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a SELECT
statement with many LEFT JOIN clauses, related to certain hashtable size calculations.
CVE-2010-1169
PostgreSQL 7.4 before 7.4.29, 8.0 before 8.0.25, 8.1 before 8.1.21, 8.2 before 8.2.17, 8.3 before 8.3.11,
8.4 before 8.4.4, and 9.0 Beta before 9.0 Beta 2 does not properly restrict PL/perl procedures, which
allows remote authenticated users, with database-creation privileges, to execute arbitrary Perl code via a
crafted script, related to the Safe module (aka Safe.pm) for Perl.
CVE-2010-1170
The PL/Tcl implementation in PostgreSQL 7.4 before 7.4.29, 8.0 before 8.0.25, 8.1 before 8.1.21, 8.2
before 8.2.17, 8.3 before 8.3.11, 8.4 before 8.4.4, and 9.0 Beta before 9.0 Beta 2 loads Tcl code from the
pltcl_modules table regardless of the table's ownership and permissions, which allows remote authenticated
users, with database-creation privileges, to execute arbitrary Tcl code by creating this table and
inserting a crafted Tcl script.
