Background ========== PostgreSQL is an open source object-relational database management system. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 dev-db/postgresql < 8.0.11 >= 8.0.11 *>= 7.4.16 *>= 7.3.13 Description =========== PostgreSQL does not correctly check the data types of the SQL function arguments under unspecified circumstances nor the format of the provided tables in the query planner. Impact ====== A remote authenticated attacker could send specially crafted queries to the server that could result in a server crash and possibly the unauthorized reading of some database content or arbitrary memory. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All PostgreSQL users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "dev-db/postgresql" References ========== [ 1 ] CVE-2007-0555 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-0555 [ 2 ] CVE-2007-0556 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-0556 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200703-15.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
