Red Hat Security Advisory

 

Synopsis: Moderate: postgresql security update

Advisory ID: RHSA-2009:1485-01

Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2009-1485.html

Issue date: 2009-10-07

CVE Names: CVE-2009-3230

=====================================================================

 

1. Summary:

 

Updated postgresql packages that fix a security issue are now available for

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.

 

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red

Hat Security Response Team.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

 

Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64

 

3. Description:

 

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system

(DBMS).

 

It was discovered that the upstream patch for CVE-2007-6600 included in the

Red Hat Security Advisory RHSA-2008:0039 did not include protection against

misuse of the RESET ROLE and RESET SESSION AUTHORIZATION commands. An

authenticated user could use this flaw to install malicious code that would

later execute with superuser privileges. (CVE-2009-3230)

 

All PostgreSQL users should upgrade to these updated packages, which

contain a backported patch to correct this issue. If you are running a

PostgreSQL server, the postgresql service must be restarted for this update

to take effect.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released

errata relevant to your system have been applied.

 

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use

the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at

http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259

 

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

 

522085 - CVE-2009-3230 postgresql: SQL privilege escalation, incomplete fix for CVE-2007-6600

 

6. Package List:
