Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'postgresql-9.3, postgresql-9.5, postgresql-9.6' package(s) announced via the USN-3390-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Ben de Graaff, Jelte Fennema, and Jeroen van der Ham discovered that
PostgreSQL allowed the use of empty passwords in some authentication
methods, contrary to expected behaviour. A remote attacker could use an
empty password to authenticate to servers that were believed to have
password login disabled. (CVE-2017-7546)

Jeff Janes discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled the
pg_user_mappings catalog view. A remote attacker without server privileges
could possibly use this issue to obtain certain passwords. (CVE-2017-7547)

Chapman Flack discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled lo_put()
permissions. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to change the
data in a large object. (CVE-2017-7548)

Affected Software/OS:
'postgresql-9.3, postgresql-9.5, postgresql-9.6' package(s) on Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 16.04, Ubuntu 17.04.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
