Message-ID: <200311131713.PAA21220@frajuto.distro.conectiva> Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2003 15:13:19 -0200 From: Conectiva Updates <secure@...ectiva.com.br> To: conectiva-updates@...aleguas.conectiva.com.br, lwn@....net, bugtraq@...urityfocus.com, security-alerts@...uxsecurity.com, linsec@...ts.seifried.org Subject: [CLA-2003:784] Conectiva Security Announcement - postgresql -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- PACKAGE : postgresql SUMMARY : Buffer overflow vulnerability DATE : 2003-11-13 14:59:00 ID : CLA-2003:784 RELEVANT RELEASES : 7.0, 8, 9 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION PostgreSQL[1] is a sophisticated relational database which supports almost all SQL constructs, including subselects, transactions and user-defined types and functions. Guido Notari reported a buffer overflow vulnerability[2][3] in the to_ascii() function that could possibly be used by attackers to execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability was fixed by Tom Lane who, later on, according to CVS changelogs[4], found another buffer overflow problem in the same function which was also fixed. SOLUTION It is recommended that all PostgreSQL users upgrade their packages. After the upgrade, it is necessary to manually restart the postgresql service if it was already running. To do so, run the following command as root: /sbin/service postgresql restart REFERENCES 1.http://www.postgresql.com/ 2.http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2003-0901 3.http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/8741 4.http://developer.postgresql.org/cvsweb.cgi/pgsql-server/src/backend/utils/adt/ascii.c UPDATED PACKAGES ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/SRPMS/postgresql-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.src.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-clients-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-clients-X11-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-contrib-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-devel-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-devel-static-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-doc-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-lib-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-odbc-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-perl-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-python-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-tcl-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/postgresql-test-7.1.3-1U70_4cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/SRPMS/postgresql-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.src.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-clients-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-clients-X11-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-contrib-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-devel-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-devel-static-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-doc-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-lib-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-odbc-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-perl-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-python-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-tcl-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/postgresql-test-7.2.4-1U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/SRPMS/postgresql-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.src.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-charset-addons-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-clients-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-contrib-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-devel-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-devel-static-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-doc-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-libecpg3.4-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-libpq3-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-perl-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-python-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-tcl-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/postgresql-test-7.3.2-27694U90_1cl.i386.rpm ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS The apt tool can be used to perform RPM packages upgrades: - run: apt-get update - after that, execute: apt-get upgrade Detailed instructions reagarding the use of apt and upgrade examples can be found at http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/#apt?idioma=en - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- All packages are signed with Conectiva's GPG key.
