The remote host is missing an update to postgresql
announced via advisory MDKSA-2006:098.
PostgreSQL 8.1.x before 8.1.4, 8.0.x before 8.0.8, 7.4.x before 7.4.13,
7.3.x before 7.3.15, and earlier versions allows context-dependent
attackers to bypass SQL injection protection methods in applications
via invalid encodings of multibyte characters, aka one variant of
Encoding-Based SQL Injection. (CVE-2006-2313)
PostgreSQL 8.1.x before 8.1.4, 8.0.x before 8.0.8, 7.4.x before 7.4.13,
7.3.x before 7.3.15, and earlier versions allows context-dependent
attackers to bypass SQL injection protection methods in applications
that use multibyte encodings that allow the \ (backslash) byte 0x5c to
be the trailing byte of a multibyte character, such as SJIS, BIG5, GBK,
GB18030, and UHC, which cannot be handled correctly by a client that does
not understand multibyte encodings, aka a second variant of Encoding-Based
SQL Injection. NOTE: it could be argued that this is a class of issue
related to interaction errors between the client and PostgreSQL, but a
CVE has been assigned since PostgreSQL is treating this as a preventative
measure against this class of problem. (CVE-2006-2314)
Packages have been patched or updated to correct these issues.
Affected: 10.2, 2006.0, Corporate 3.0
Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
