Test Kennung:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.120570
Kategorie:Amazon Linux Local Security Checks
Titel:Amazon Linux: Security Advisory (ALAS-2011-12)
Zusammenfassung:The remote host is missing an update for the 'postgresql' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2011-12 advisory.
Beschreibung:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'postgresql' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2011-12 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
A signedness issue was found in the way the crypt() function in the PostgreSQL pgcrypto module handled 8-bit characters in passwords when using Blowfish hashing. Up to three characters immediately preceding a non-ASCII character (one with the high bit set) had no effect on the hash result, thus shortening the effective password length. This made brute-force guessing more efficient as several different passwords were hashed to the same value. (CVE-2011-2483)

Note: Due to the CVE-2011-2483 fix, after installing this update some users may not be able to log in to applications that store user passwords, hashed with Blowfish using the PostgreSQL crypt() function, in a back-end PostgreSQL database. Unsafe processing can be re-enabled for specific passwords (allowing affected users to log in) by changing their hash prefix to '$2x$'.

Affected Software/OS:
'postgresql' package(s) on Amazon Linux.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
