Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-1780-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libdbd-pg-perl' package(s) announced via the DSA-1780-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'libdbd-pg-perl' package(s) announced via the DSA-1780-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in libdbd-pg-perl, the DBI driver module for PostgreSQL database access (DBD::Pg).

CVE-2009-0663

A heap-based buffer overflow may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code through applications which read rows from the database using the pg_getline and getline functions. (More common retrieval methods, such as selectall_arrayref and fetchrow_array, are not affected.)

CVE-2009-1341

A memory leak in the routine which unquotes BYTEA values returned from the database allows attackers to cause a denial of service.

For the old stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 1.49-2+etch1.

For the stable distribution (lenny) and the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 2.1.3-1 before the release of lenny.

We recommend that you upgrade your libdbd-pg-perl package.

Affected Software/OS:
'libdbd-pg-perl' package(s) on Debian 4.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
7.5
