Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: : Updated PostgreSQL packages fix security issues and bugs
Notes
Topic
Updated PostgreSQL packages are available for Red Hat Linux 7.3 and 8.0.
These packages correct several security and other bugs. A separate
advisory deals with updated PostgreSQL packages for Red Hat Linux 6.2, 7,
7.1, and 7.2.
Details
PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system.
Red Hat Linux 7.3 shipped with PostgreSQL version 7.2.1. Red Hat Linux 8.0
shipped with PostgreSQL version 7.2.2.
PostgreSQL versions 7.2.1 and 7.2.2 contain a serious issue with the VACUUM
command when it is run by a non-superuser. It is possible for the system
to prematurely remove old transaction log data (pg_clog files), which can
result in unrecoverable data loss.
A number of minor security issues affect the PostgreSQL 7.2.1 packages
shipped with Red Hat Linux 7.3 only:
1. Buffer overflows in PostgreSQL 7.2 allow attackers to cause a denial of
service and possibly execute arbitrary code via long arguments to the lpad
or rpad functions. CAN-2002-0972
2. Buffer overflow in the cash_words() function allows local users to cause
a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a malformed
argument. CAN-2002-1397
3. Buffer overflow in the date parser allows attackers to cause a denial of
service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long date string, also
known as a vulnerability "in handling long datetime input." CAN-2002-1398
4. Heap-based buffer overflow in the repeat() function allows attackers to
execute arbitrary code by causing repeat() to generate a large string.
CAN-2002-1400
5. Buffer overflows in the TZ and SET TIME ZONE enivronment variables allow
local users to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary
code. CAN-2002-1402
Additionally, buffer overflows in circle_poly, path_encode and path_add
allow attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary
code. Note that these overflows have been fixed in our erratum packages and
in PostgreSQL CVS, but are not fixed in the released versions of PostgreSQL
version 7.2.3. CAN-2002-1401
The above vulnerabilities are only critical on open or shared systems
because connecting to the database is required before the vulnerabilities
can be exploited.
This update also contains fixes for several other PostgreSQL bugs,
including handling of pre-1970 date values in newer versions of glibc,
possible server shutdown hangs, spinlock hangs on SMP PPC machines, and
pg_dump improperly dumping with the FULL JOIN USING clauses.
All users of PostgreSQL should upgrade to these errata packages containing
PostgreSQL 7.2.3 with additional patches to correct all these issues. Note
that running initdb is not necessary when upgrading from 7.2.1 or 7.2.2 to
the packages contained in this errata.

Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: : Updated PostgreSQL packages fix buffer overrun vulnerabilities
Notes
Topic
Updated PostgreSQL packages are available for Red Hat Linux 6.2, 7, 7.1,
and 7.2 where we have backported a number of security fixes. A separate
advisory deals with updated PostgreSQL packages for Red Hat Linux 7.3 and 8.0.
Details
PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system
(DBMS). A number of security issues have been found that affect PostgreSQL
versions shipped with Red Hat Linux.
Buffer overflows in PostgreSQL 7.2 allow attackers to cause a denial of
service and possibly execute arbitrary code via long arguments to the lpad
or rpad functions. CAN-2002-0972
Buffer overflow in the cash_words() function for PostgreSQL 7.2 and
earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service and possibly
execute arbitrary code via a malformed argument. CAN-2002-1397
Buffer overflow in the date parser for PostgreSQL before 7.2.2 allows
attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary
code via a long date string, also known as a vulnerability "in handling
long datetime input." CAN-2002-1398
Heap-based buffer overflow in the repeat() function for PostgreSQL
before 7.2.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by causing
repeat() to generate a large string. CAN-2002-1400
Buffer overflows in circle_poly, path_encode and path_add allow attackers
to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code. Note
that these issues have been fixed in our packages and in PostgreSQL CVS,
but are not included in PostgreSQL version 7.2.2 or 7.2.3. CAN-2002-1401
Buffer overflows in the TZ and SET TIME ZONE enivronment variables for
PostgreSQL 7.2.1 and earlier allow local users to cause a denial of service
and possibly execute arbitrary code. CAN-2002-1402
Note that these vulnerabilities are only critical on open or shared systems
because connecting to the database is required before the vulnerabilities
can be exploited.
The PostgreSQL Global Development Team has released versions of PostgreSQL
that fixes these vulnerabilities, and these fixes have been isolated and
backported to the various versions of PostgreSQL that originally shipped
with each Red Hat Linux distribution. All users of PostgreSQL are advised
to install these updated packages.

Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: postgresql security update
Notes
Topic
Updated PostgreSQL packages are available which correct
several minor security vulnerabilities.
[Updated 06 Feb 2003]
Added fixed packages for Advanced Workstation 2.1
Details
PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system
(DBMS). Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1 shipped with PostgreSQL version
7.1.3 which has several security vulnerabilities.
Buffer overflows in PostgreSQL 7.2 allow attackers to cause a denial of
service and possibly execute arbitrary code via long arguments to the lpad
or rpad functions. CAN-2002-0972
Buffer overflow in the cash_words() function for PostgreSQL 7.2 and
earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service and possibly
execute arbitrary code via a malformed argument. CAN-2002-1397
Buffer overflow in the date parser for PostgreSQL before 7.2.2 allows
attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary
code via a long date string, referred to as a vulnerability "in handling
long datetime input." CAN-2002-1398
Heap-based buffer overflow in the repeat() function for PostgreSQL
before 7.2.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by causing
repeat() to generate a large string. CAN-2002-1400
Buffer overflows in circle_poly, path_encode, and path_add allow attackers
to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code. Note
that these issues have been fixed in our packages and in PostgreSQL CVS,
but are not included in PostgreSQL version 7.2.2 or 7.2.3. CAN-2002-1401
Buffer overflows in the TZ and SET TIME ZONE enivronment variables for
PostgreSQL 7.2.1 and earlier allow local users to cause a denial of service
and possibly execute arbitrary code. CAN-2002-1402
Note that these vulnerabilities are only critical on open or shared systems
because connecting to the database is required before the vulnerabilities
can be exploited.
The PostgreSQL Global Development Team has released versions of PostgreSQL
that fix these vulnerabilities, and these fixes have been isolated and
backported into the updated 7.1.3 packages provided with this errata.
All users of Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1 who use PostgreSQL are
advised to install these updated packages.
