"The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for rh-postgresql95-postgresql.");
  script_set_attribute(attribute:"description", value:
"The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as
referenced in the RHSA-2017:2677 advisory.

    PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system (DBMS).

    The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: rh-postgresql95-postgresql (9.5.9).
    (BZ#1484637, BZ#1484642, BZ#1484648)

    Security Fix(es):

    * It was found that authenticating to a PostgreSQL database account with an empty password was possible
    despite libpq's refusal to send an empty password. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to
    gain access to database accounts with empty passwords. (CVE-2017-7546)

    * An authorization flaw was found in the way PostgreSQL handled access to the pg_user_mappings view on
    foreign servers. A remote, authenticated attacker could potentially use this flaw to retrieve passwords
    from the user mappings defined by the foreign server owners without actually having the privileges to do
    so. (CVE-2017-7547)

    * An authorization flaw was found in the way PostgreSQL handled large objects. A remote, authenticated
    attacker with no privileges on a large object could potentially use this flaw to overwrite the entire
    content of the object, thus resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2017-7548)

    Red Hat would like to thank the PostgreSQL project for reporting these issues. Upstream acknowledges Ben
    de Graaff, Jelte Fennema, and Jeroen van der Ham as the original reporters of CVE-2017-7546; Jeff Janes as
    the original reporter of CVE-2017-7547; and Chapman Flack as the original reporter of CVE-2017-7548.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
