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.

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

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.

FreeBSD 7.1 update.

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".

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group today released versions 8.1.4, 8.0.8,

can permit a SQL injection attack on some applications running PostgreSQL.

Users are urged to apply the update as soon as reasonably possible. Since the
update affects client functionality, most driver projects will be updating
this week as well.

Because the security issue involved is complex, we have added a section in
Techdocs to explain it: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/techdocs.52. Please
read this first before applying the updates.

Also, fix rc_subr startup problems on FreeBSD-7.x.

installed from ports. The base heimdal distribution installs libraries
that have no depenency information. While this is quite correct, it
means that each library that links with libpq.so must also know if
libpq.so is linked with libkrb.so et al. Problem is, there's no good
way to get this information (pg_config has a --libs option starting at
version 8.1) and all ports using postgresql must be changed to make it
possible to link with a libpq.so that was configured to use the
Kerberos implementation installed in /usr by default. Hence, we
require one of the ports (heimdal or krb5) if postgresql is to be
linked with Kerberos. At least for now, until we can fix this in some
better way.

Also, if MIT Kerberos (security/krb5) is installed, users should
ideally remove the base heimdal installation so linkers will not pick
it up in preference to the krb5 libs (base heimdal has higher version
numbers than krb5 port).

Fixing problems with the recent security patch: When bison was not
installed, the patched gram.y file would not be used and the security
patch would be a no-op. Also, I've had reports of compilation errors
related to bison.

Since checking for the correct version of bison is hard and error
prone, I'm doing what the postgresql distribution does - patching the
yacc:ed .c file to get rid of the building dependency.

Bumping portrevision of -server.

Upgrade PostgreSQL to 8.0.2. Here's the brief release note:

  Over the past several weeks, Tom Lane has been working on replacing
  our old Cache Management Alorithm (ARC) with a new, patent free one
  (2Q).

  In order to reduce the number of 8.x deployments out there that are
  using the old manager, we have just released 8.0.2, and encourage
  adminstrators to upgrade at their earliest convience.

  For those already running 8.x on your production servers, please
  note that this upgrade does *NOT* require a dump restore, but due to
  a bump in the major version number for the client library (libpq),
  it *WILL* require all client applications to be recompiled at the
  same time.

For full release info, see
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/release.html#RELEASE-8-0-2

Apart from the upgrade, three new config options are added:

 A patch (experimental) for supporting proper collation
 of utf-8 encoded locales, using IBM's ICU package (devel/icu). See
 http://people.freebsd.org/~girgen/postgresql-icu/README.html for more
 info.

 An optional patch written by Evgen Potemkin, which allows
 PostgreSQL to make hierarchical queries à la Oracle [1].

 An option is added that allows the use of 64 bit ints to
 store dates [2].

Fix security alert using a patch from PostgreSQL's CVS repository:

  Prevent overrunning a heap-allocated buffer if more than 1024
  parameters to a refcursor declaration are specified. This is a
  minimally-invasive fix for the buffer overrun.

Define LATEST_LINK to avoid package name clashes between the different
branches of PostgreSQL. [1] (Since postgresql-tcltk is hardwired to
branch 7.4, keep its LATEST_LINK to a generic value.)

Set UNIQUENAME and let it be the same for server & client, so each
branch's ports will share the same options file. This adds some no-op
knobs to the -client port, but IMO it is better this way.

Add space inside paranthesis in OSVERSION conditional to work around
(ancient) make bug. [2]

Remove the Rendez-Vouz knob for 8.0 since I can't find the software
needed to even compile it on FreeBSD.

Bump portrevision (for -server only).

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]

Say hello to postgresql-8.0. Some of the highlights of the new version
are savepoints (within transactions), point-in-time recovery and
tablespaces. Check out the release notes and the shiny new
PostgreSQL.org website at:

http://www.PostgreSQL.org/docs/8.0/static/release.html#RELEASE-8-0

The port uses the new postgresql ports' layout and is split into a
server and a client part. The following knobs can be used by ports
depending on PostgreSQL:

# USE_PGSQL     - Add PostgreSQL client dependency.
#                 If no version is given (by the maintainer via the port or
#                 by the user via defined variable), try to find the
#                 currently installed version.  Fall back to default if
#                 necessary (PostgreSQL-7.4 = 74).
# DEFAULT_PGSQL_VER
#               - PostgreSQL default version. Can be overridden within a port.
#                 Default: 74.
# WANT_PGSQL_VER
#               - Maintainer can set an arbitrary version of PostgreSQL by
#                 using it.
# BROKEN_WITH_PGSQL
#               - This variable can be defined if the ports doesn't support
#                 one or more versions of PostgreSQL.

Enter PostgreSQL 8.0.0.  Given 4.11 is still being released, abuse -devel by
stuffing the 8.0.0 release in here for the time being.  Port epoch bumped
because 8.0.rc* is greater than 8.0.0.  A note from UPDATING to people who
want to use 8.0.0 via -devel in production:

  The -devel port has been updated to contain 8.0 release since
  postgresql80-server can not be updated until 4.11 is released and the
  changes in PR ports/75344 are committed.  Users who need 8.0 now can
  use the -devel port, however, once postgresql80-server has been
  committed, -devel will begin tracking 8.1.  Please be smart about
  tracking ports and if used in production, update to
  databases/postgresql80-server as soon as it becomes available.  No
  dump/reload will be required when changing from -devel to
  postgresql80-server.
