This turned out to be more of a training lesson in Security. ServerBuddies could have done it by theirself but was nice enough to chat me through it so I could understand exactly what was involved. They knew all the answers to my questions and were patient with me while I tried to finally get it. If you are looking for an excellent provider, you can’t go wrong with ServerBuddies. Thanks!

[RHSA-2011:0198-01] Moderate: postgresql84 security update.

02-05-2011

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system (DBMS).

A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way PostgreSQL processed certain tokens from an SQL query when the intarray module was enabled on a particular database. An authenticated database user running a specially-crafted SQL query could use this flaw to cause a temporary denial of service (postgres daemon crash) or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the database server. (CVE-2010-4015)

These updated postgresql84 packages upgrade PostgreSQL to version 8.4.7. Refer to the PostgreSQL Release Notes for a full list of changes:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/release.html

All PostgreSQL users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct this issue. If the postgresql service is running, it will be automatically restarted after installing this update.

Relevant releases/architectures:

RHEL Desktop Workstation (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate
security impact.
