postgresql: add fix for CVE-2014-0065 and CVE-2014-0066 Security Advisory

2014-11-07T14:05:45+00:00

Coverity identified a number of places in which it couldn't prove that a string being copied into a fixed-size buffer would fit. We believe that most, perhaps all of these are in fact safe, or are copying data that is coming from a trusted source so that any overrun is not really a security issue. Nonetheless it seems prudent to forestall any risk by using strlcpy() and similar functions. Fixes by Peter Eisentraut and Jozef Mlich based on Coverity reports. In addition, fix a potential null-pointer-dereference crash in contrib/chkpass. The crypt(3) function is defined to return NULL on failure, but chkpass.c didn't check for that before using the result. The main practical case in which this could be an issue is if libc is configured to refuse to execute unapproved hashing algorithms (e.g., "FIPS mode"). This ideally should've been a separate commit, but since it touches code adjacent to one of the buffer overrun changes, I included it in this commit to avoid last-minute merge issues. This issue was reported by Honza Horak.

postgresql: add fix for CVE-2014-0067 Security Advisory

2014-11-07T14:05:45+00:00

The make check command for the test suites in PostgreSQL 9.3.3 and earlier does not properly invoke initdb to specify the authentication requirements for a database cluster to be used for the tests, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging access to this cluster. http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2014-0067 Signed-off-by: Yue Tao Signed-off-by: Kai Kang Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa

postgresql: add fix for CVE-2014-0063 Security Advisory

2014-11-07T14:05:45+00:00

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in PostgreSQL before 8.4.20, 9.0.x before 9.0.16, 9.1.x before 9.1.12, 9.2.x before 9.2.7, and 9.3.x before 9.3.3 allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to an incorrect MAXDATELEN constant and datetime values involving (1) intervals, (2) timestamps, or (3) timezones, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-0065. http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2014-0063 Signed-off-by: Yue Tao Signed-off-by: Kai Kang Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa

The validator functions for the procedural languages (PLs) in PostgreSQL before 8.4.20, 9.0.x before 9.0.16, 9.1.x before 9.1.12, 9.2.x before 9.2.7, and 9.3.x before 9.3.3 allow remote authenticated users to gain privileges via a function that is (1) defined in another language or (2) not allowed to be directly called by the user due to permissions. http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2014-0061 Signed-off-by: Yue Tao Signed-off-by: Kai Kang Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa

postgresql: add fix for CVE-2014-0060 Security Advisory

2014-11-07T14:05:45+00:00

PostgreSQL before 8.4.20, 9.0.x before 9.0.16, 9.1.x before 9.1.12, 9.2.x before 9.2.7, and 9.3.x before 9.3.3 does not properly enforce the ADMIN OPTION restriction, which allows remote authenticated members of a role to add or remove arbitrary users to that role by calling the SET ROLE command before the associated GRANT command. http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2014-0060 Signed-off-by: Yue Tao Signed-off-by: Kai Kang Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa

postgresql: add fix for CVE-2014-0064 Security Advisory

2014-11-07T14:05:45+00:00

Multiple integer overflows in the path_in and other unspecified functions in PostgreSQL before 8.4.20, 9.0.x before 9.0.16, 9.1.x before 9.1.12, 9.2.x before 9.2.7, and 9.3.x before 9.3.3 allow remote authenticated users to have unspecified impact and attack vectors, which trigger a buffer overflow. NOTE: this identifier has been SPLIT due to different affected versions; use CVE-2014-2669 for the hstore vector. http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2014-0064 Signed-off-by: Yue Tao Signed-off-by: Kai Kang Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa

postgresql: add systemd unit file

2014-09-26T03:41:53+00:00

Add systemd unit file for postgresql. When 'sysvinit' and 'systemd' are both in DISTRO_FEATURES, we need to prevent the init script from running via systemd. Signed-off-by: Chong Lu Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa

postgresql: move initdb to postgresql-setup

2014-09-26T03:41:53+00:00

We shouldn't use sysvinit init script to initialize database when use systemd as the init manager, so split initdb function to postgresql-setup. Before starting postgresql server, we can use "postgresql-setup initdb" to initialize the database cluster. Signed-off-by: Chong Lu Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa
