+Package: postgresql
+Vulnerability: remote code execution
+OpenPKG Specific: no
+
+Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
+OpenPKG CURRENT <= postgresql-7.3.3-20030723 >= postgresql-7.3.4-20030725
+OpenPKG 1.3 N.A. none
+OpenPKG 1.2 <= postgresql-7.3.1-1.2.3 >= postgresql-7.3.1-1.2.4
+
+Dependent Packages: none
+
+Notice:
+ This is an update for the OpenPKG security advisory
+ OpenPKG-SA-2003.047 [7], released on 30-Oct-2003. Unfortunately, the
+ package postgresql-7.3.1-1.2.3 (for OpenPKG 1.2 only) accompanying the
+ original security advisory was broken because the created security
+ patch was accidentally not included into the resulting source RPM
+ package. Thanks to Andreas from Conectiva for discovering this
+ packaging bug. The package postgresql-7.3.1-1.2.4 accompanying this
+ updated security advisory is now fixed by correctly including the
+ necessary security patch.
+
+Description:
+ Two bugs leading to a buffer overflow in the PostgreSQL [0] RDBMS,
+ versions 7.2.x and 7.3.x prior to 7.3.4, were discovered. The
+ vulnerability exists in the PostgreSQL abstract data type (ADT) to
+ ASCII conversion functions.
+
+ It has been conjectured that excessive data passed to the involved
+ to_ascii_xxx() functions may overrun the bounds of an insufficient
+ buffer reserved in heap memory, resulting in the corruption of heap
+ based memory management structures that are adjacent to it. It is
+ currently believed that under the correct circumstances an attacker
+ may use this to execute arbitrary instructions in the context of the
+ PostgreSQL server.
+
+ The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
+ CAN-2003-0901 [1] to the problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q
+ postgresql". If you have the "postgresql" package installed and its
+ version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately
+ upgrade it (see Solution). [2][3]
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for the OpenPKG release
+ [4], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [5] or a mirror location,
+ verify its integrity [6], build a corresponding binary RPM from it
+ [2] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary RPM
+ [3]. For the release OpenPKG 1.2, perform the following operations
+ to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases adjust
+ accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/1.2/UPD
+ ftp> get postgresql-7.3.1-1.2.4.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig postgresql-7.3.1-1.2.4.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild postgresql-7.3.1-1.2.4.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/postgresql-7.3.1-1.2.4.*.rpm
