tag_insight = "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.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
version 8.3.11-0lenny1. This update also introduces a fix for
CVE-2010-0442, which was originally scheduled for the next Lenny point
update.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 8.4.4-1 of postgresql-8.4.

We recommend that you upgrade your postgresql-8.3 packages.";
