"A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way PostgreSQL
processed certain tokens from a SQL query when the intarray module was
enabled on a particular database. An authenticated database user
running a specially crafted SQL query could use this flaw to cause a
temporary denial of service (postgres daemon crash) or, potentially,
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the database server.
(CVE-2010-4015)
These updated postgresql84 packages upgrade PostgreSQL to version
8.4.7. Refer to the PostgreSQL Release Notes for a full list of
changes :
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/release.html
If the postgresql service is running, it will be automatically
restarted after installing this update."
