postgresql vulnerabilities Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Summary : These remote packages are missing security patches : - libecpg-dev - libecpg4 - libpgtcl - libpgtcl-dev - libpq3 - postgresql - postgresql-client - postgresql-contrib - postgresql-dev - postgresql-doc Description : It was discovered that unprivileged users were permited to call internal character conversion functions. However, since these functions were not designed to be safe against malicious choices of argument values, this could potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the PostgreSQL server (user "postgres"). (CVE-2005-1409) Another vulnerability was found in the "tsearch2" module of postgresql-contrib. This module declared several functions as internal, although they did not accept any internal argument this breaks the type safety of "internal" by permiting users to construct SQL commands that invoke other functions accepting "internal" arguments. This could eventually be exploited to crash the server, or possibly even execute arbitrary code with the rights of the PostgreSQL server. (CVE-2005-1410) These vulnerabilities must also be fixed in all existing databases when upgrading. The post-installation script of the updated package attempts to do this automatically if the pack [...] Solution : Upgrade to : - libecpg-dev-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - libecpg4-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - libpgtcl-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - libpgtcl-dev-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - libpq3-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - postgresql-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - postgresql-client-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - postgresql-contrib-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - postgresql-dev-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) - postgresql-doc-7.4.7-2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.04) Network Security Threat Level: High Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2005 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2005 Michel Arboi |
