Test ID:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.68187
Category:	Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:	Ubuntu USN-1002-1 (postgresql-8.4)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to postgresql-8.4 announced via advisory USN-1002-1. Details follow: It was discovered that PostgreSQL did not properly enforce permissions within sessions when PL/Perl and PL/Tcl functions or operators were redefined. A remote authenticated attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with permissions of a different user, possibly leading to privilege escalation. Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS: postgresql-plperl-8.1 8.1.22-0ubuntu0.6.06 postgresql-pltcl-8.1 8.1.22-0ubuntu0.6.06 Ubuntu 8.04 LTS: postgresql-plperl-8.3 8.3.12-0ubuntu8.04 postgresql-pltcl-8.3 8.3.12-0ubuntu8.04 Ubuntu 9.04: postgresql-plperl-8.3 8.3.12-0ubuntu9.04 postgresql-pltcl-8.3 8.3.12-0ubuntu9.04 Ubuntu 9.10: postgresql-plperl-8.4 8.4.5-0ubuntu9.10 postgresql-pltcl-8.4 8.4.5-0ubuntu9.10 Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: postgresql-plperl-8.4 8.4.5-0ubuntu10.04 postgresql-pltcl-8.4 8.4.5-0ubuntu10.04 This update uses a new upstream release, which includes additional bug fixes. In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes. https://secure1.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-1002-1 Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 6.0
