Security:       CVE-2010-1169
Security:       CVE-2010-1170

The PostgreSQL Project today released minor versions updating all active
branches of the PostgreSQL object-relational database system, including
versions 8.4.4, 8.3.11, 8.2.17, 8.1.21, 8.0.25, and 7.4.29. This release
fixes moderate-risk security issues with PL/perl and PL/tcl, as well as
a data corruption issue with standby databases.  Users of any of these
three features should update their PostgreSQL installations immediately.

The PL/perl security fix closes a security hole in PL/perl
procedures which could allow privilege escalation on the host system,
caused by a flaw in Safe.pm; see CVE-2010-1169 and CVE-2010-1447 for
details.  A second patch prevents PL/tcl's pltcl_modules table from
being subverted in order to run arbitrary Tcl scripts; see
CVE-2010-1170.  These issues only affect users who have enabled either
of these two stored procedure languages.

Also corrected is use of the command ALTER TABLE SET TABLESPACE, which
previously could cause data corruption on Warm Standby database slaves.
This issue affects only version 8.4.

There are also 21 other bug fixes in this release, some of which apply
only to version 8.4, and a few of which are specifically for Windows.
While these are generally fixes for minor issues, among the changes are:

     * Fix for a combinational crash condition
     * Prevent normal users from resetting some GUCs in
       their own role definitions
     * Correctly apply constraint exclusion in UPDATE and DELETE queries
     * Minor fixes for WAL archiving
     * Update timezone data for 12 zones

See the release notes for a full list of changes with details.

The PostgreSQL Project today released minor versions updating all active
branches of the PostgreSQL object-relational database system, including
versions 8.3.7, 8.2.13, 8.1.17, 8.0.21 and 7.4.25. This release fixes a denial
of service issue with encoding conversion, and all users should update their
installations at the next reasonable opportunity.

There are 12 other minor fixes contained in these update releases, including
fixes for xpath() functions in version 8.3. See the release notes for full

Update PostgreSQL to latest versions.

URL: http://www.postgresql.org/about/news.1055

The PostgreSQL Project today released
updates to all active branches of the
PostgreSQL object-relational database
system, including versions 8.3.6,
8.2.12, 8.1.16, 8.0.20 and 7.4.24. These
updates include two serious fixes, for
autovacuum crashes in version 8.1 and
GiST indexing data loss in 8.3, and
those two versions should be updated as
soon as possible.

These update releases also include
patches for several low-risk security
holes, as well as up to 17 other minor
fixes, depending on your major version
of PostgreSQL. Included as well are
Daylight Savings Time changes for Nepal,
Switzerland and Cuba. See the release
notes for full details.

The first serious issue affects users
who are using version 8.1 with
Autovacuum, which will fail when XID
rollover is required. The second serious
issue can cause data loss when CLUSTER
is used with GiST indexes (such as full
text indexes) on version 8.3. Both
issues are fixed in these releases.

Update PostgreSQL to 7.3.19, 7.4.17, 8.0.13, 8.1.9 and 8.2.4 respectively:

 The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released updated versions
 for PostgreSQL 8.2 and all back versions to patch a privilege
 escalation exploit in SECURITY DEFINER functions.  All users of this
 feature are urged to update to the latest minor version and follow
 instructions on securing these functions as soon as possible.  This
 minor release also contains other fixes, so all users should plan to
 deploy it.

 Once you have updated, additional steps are required to secure your
 database against the exploit.  Please read the release notes at
 http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/release.html and the
 TechDocs article at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/techdocs.77 on how
 to lock down your security definer functions, if you use them.

 As always, application of a minor release does not require a dump and
 reload of the database.

 The frequency of security fixes recently is a result of increased
 scrutiny of the PostgreSQL code by government agencies and
 security-conscious companies.  Rapid turnaround on security patches
 is key to keeping PostgreSQL the most secure SQL database.  Your work
 and vigilance in applying the latest security updates ensures that
 there will never be a PostgreSQL "worm".

Users are urged to apply the update as soon as reasonably possible. Since the

Because the security issue involved is complex, we have added a section in

   for 7.4.8.
     __________________________________________________________________

Changes

     * Fix error that allowed "VACUUM" to remove ctid chains too soon, and
       add more checking in code that follows ctid links
       This fixes a long-standing problem that could cause crashes in very
       rare circumstances.
     * Fix CHAR() to properly pad spaces to the specified length when
       using a multiple-byte character set (Yoshiyuki Asaba)
       In prior releases, the padding of CHAR() was incorrect because it
       only padded to the specified number of bytes without considering
       how many characters were stored.
     * Fix the sense of the test for read-only transaction in "COPY"
       The code formerly prohibited "COPY TO", where it should prohibit
       "COPY FROM".
     * Fix planning problem with outer-join ON clauses that reference only
       the inner-side relation
     * Further fixes for x FULL JOIN y ON true corner cases
     * Make array_in and array_recv more paranoid about validating their
       OID parameter
     * Fix missing rows in queries like UPDATE a=... WHERE a... with GiST
       index on column a
     * Improve robustness of datetime parsing
     * Improve checking for partially-written WAL pages
     * Improve robustness of signal handling when SSL is enabled
     * Don't try to open more than max_files_per_process files during
       postmaster startup
     * Various memory leakage fixes
     * Various portability improvements
     * Fix PL/PgSQL to handle var := var correctly when the variable is of
       pass-by-reference type
     * Update "contrib/tsearch2" to use current Snowball code

23:42 girgen 

Update PostgreSQL to latest versions.  For details on the fixes,
please see the HISTORY file included in the Release, but a summary
consists of:

      * Change encoding function signature to prevent misuse
      * Change "contrib/tsearch2" to avoid unsafe use of INTERNAL function
        results
      * Repair race condition between relation extension and VACUUM
        This could theoretically have caused loss of a page's worth of
        freshly-inserted data, although the scenario seems of very low
        probability. There are no known cases of it having caused more than
        an Assert failure.

In order to address a potential security hole recently identified with
the "LOAD" option, the PostgreSQL Global Development Group is
announcing the release of new versions of PostgreSQL.

Update to 7.3.9, 7.4.7 & 8.0.1.

Take the opportunity to reset PORTREVISION of slave ports.

Back out name change of startup script. The new script uses rc.subr(8),
and as such also uses rcorder(8). But, rcorder does not exist in FreeBSD
4.x. Hence rename the script it back to the top of the directory
list. [1]

The periodic script should of course be executable. [2]
