PostgreSQL's contains several vulnerabilities:
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>John Heasman discovered that the LOAD extension is vulnerable to
|
||
|
local privilege escalation (CAN-2005-0227).</li>
|
||
|
<li>It is possible to bypass the EXECUTE permission check for functions
|
||
|
(CAN-2005-0244).</li>
|
||
|
<li>The PL/PgSQL parser is vulnerable to heap-based buffer overflow
|
||
|
(CAN-2005-0244).</li>
|
||
|
<li>The intagg contrib module is vulnerable to a Denial of Service
|
||
|
(CAN-2005-0246).</li>
|
||
|
</ul>

<impact type="normal">
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
An attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the
|
||
|
privileges of the PostgreSQL server, bypass security restrictions and
|
||
|
crash the server.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
</impact>
|
||
|
<workaround>
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
There is no know workaround at this time.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
</workaround>
|
||
|
<resolution>
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
All PostgreSQL users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<code>
|
||
|
# emerge --sync
|
||
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose dev-db/postgresql</code>
