This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.
PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system (DBMS).
Two flaws were found in the way the PostgreSQL server handles certain SQL-language functions. An authenticated user could execute a sequence of commands which could crash the PostgreSQL server or possibly read from arbitrary memory locations. A user would need to have permissions to drop and add database tables to be able to exploit these issues (CVE-2007-0555, CVE-2007-0556).
Several denial of service flaws were found in the PostgreSQL server.
An authenticated user could execute certain SQL commands which could crash the PostgreSQL server (CVE-2006-5540, CVE-2006-5541, CVE-2006-5542).
Users of PostgreSQL should upgrade to these updated packages containing PostgreSQL version 8.1.8 which corrects these issues.
