+ <p>
+ PostgreSQL is a SQL compliant, open source object-relational database
+ management system.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ PostgreSQL's contains several vulnerabilities:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>John Heasman discovered that the LOAD extension is vulnerable to
+ local privilege escalation (CAN-2005-0227).</li>
+ <li>It is possible to bypass the EXECUTE permission check for functions
+ (CAN-2005-0244).</li>
+ <li>The PL/PgSQL parser is vulnerable to heap-based buffer overflow
+ (CAN-2005-0244).</li>
+ <li>The intagg contrib module is vulnerable to a Denial of Service
+ (CAN-2005-0246).</li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the
+ privileges of the PostgreSQL server, bypass security restrictions and
+ crash the server.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no know workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All PostgreSQL users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose dev-db/postgresql</code>
+ </resolution>
