Changelog for postgresql-docs-8.0.13-1tr.i586.rpm :
Wed Apr 25 14:00:00 2007 Bipin S 8.0.13-1tr
- New upstream.
- SECURITY Fix: A vulnerability has been identified, which could
be exploited by malicious users to obtain elevated privileges.
This issue is caused by an insecure \"search_path\" settings,
which could be exploited by unprivileged users to gain the SQL
privileges of the owner of any SECURITY DEFINER function they
are allowed to call

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CVE-2007-2138 to this issue.

Thu Feb 8 13:00:00 2007 Bipin S 8.0.12-1tr
- New upstream, fixes type-casting bug induced by previous security fix.

Wed Feb 7 13:00:00 2007 Bipin S 8.0.11-1tr
- New upstream.
- SECURITY Fix: An unspecified error can be used to suppress certain
checks, which ensure that SQL functions return the correct data type.
This can be exploited to crash the database backend or disclose
potentially sensitive information.
- An unspecified error when changing the data type of a table column
can be exploited to crash the database backend or disclose potentially
sensitive information.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the names CVE-2007-0555 and CVE-2007-0556 to these issues.

Wed Oct 25 14:00:00 2006 Bipin S 8.0.9-1tr
- New Upstream.
- SECURITY Fix: Some vulnerabilities have been reported in PostgreSQL,
which can be exploited by malicious users to cause a DoS (SA22562).
- An incorrect type check before coercing unknown literals
into the ANYARRY type can be exploited to cause a crash when converting
certain literals into ANYARRAY.
- An error exists within the handling of aggregate functions in UPDATE
statements, which can be exploited to crash the server backend.
- An error within the logging of V3-protocol execute messages of ROLLBACK
or COMMIT statements can be exploited to cause a crash.

Mon May 29 14:00:00 2006 Nived Gopalan 8.0.8-1tr
- New Upstream.
- SECURITY Fix: Akio Ishida and Yasuo Ohgaki have reported vulnerabilities
in PostgreSQL, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people
to conduct SQL injection attacks.
- The first issue is due to an input validation error when handling a
parameter containing invalidly-encoded multibyte characters, which
could be exploited by malicious people to bypass standard string-escaping
methods and conduct SQL injection attacks via a supposedly secure script.
- The second issue is due to an error when escaping ASCII single quote \"\'\"
characters (by turning them into \"\\\'\") and operating in multibyte
encodings that allow using the \"0x5c\" ASCII code (backslash) as the
trailing byte of a multibyte character, which could be exploited by
attackers to inject arbitrary SQL queries.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the names CVE-2006-2313 and CVE-2006-2314 to these issues.

Thu Feb 16 13:00:00 2006 Nived Gopalan 8.0.7-1tr
- New Upstream.
- SECURITY Fix: Akio Ishida has reported an error in \"SET SESSION
AUTHORIZATION\" command which can be exploited to crash the server
process, if it has been compiled with Asserts enabled.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CVE-2006-0678 to this issue.
