CVE-2012-0866

It was discovered that the permissions of a function called by a trigger are not checked. This could result in privilege escalation.

CVE-2012-0867

It was discovered that only the first 32 characters of a host name are checked when validating host names through SSL certificates. This could result in spoofing the connection in limited circumstances.

CVE-2012-0868

It was discovered that pg_dump did not sanitise object names. This could result in arbitrary SQL command execution if a malformed dump file is opened.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 8.4.11-0squeeze1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 8.4.11-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your postgresql-8.4 packages.");
