Title:	RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2007:0068
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2007:0068. PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system (DBMS). Two flaws were found in the way the PostgreSQL server handles certain SQL-language functions. An authenticated user could execute a sequence of commands which could crash the PostgreSQL server or possibly read from arbitrary memory locations. A user would need to have permissions to drop and add database tables to be able to exploit these issues (CVE-2007-0555, CVE-2007-0556). Several denial of service flaws were found in the PostgreSQL server. An authenticated user could execute certain SQL commands which could crash the PostgreSQL server (CVE-2006-5540, CVE-2006-5541, CVE-2006-5542). Users of PostgreSQL should upgrade to these updated packages containing PostgreSQL version 8.1.8 which corrects these issues. Solution: Please note that this update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2007-0068.html http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/#moderate Risk factor : Critical CVSS Score: 8.5
