high Nessus Plugin ID 140398

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for postgresql:10.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:3669 advisory.

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

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: postgresql (10.14).

Security Fix(es):

* postgresql: Stack-based buffer overflow via setting a password (CVE-2019-10164)

* postgresql: TYPE in pg_temp executes arbitrary SQL during SECURITY DEFINER execution (CVE-2019-10208)

* postgresql: Uncontrolled search path element in logical replication (CVE-2020-14349)

* postgresql: Uncontrolled search path element in CREATE EXTENSION (CVE-2020-14350)

* postgresql: Selectivity estimators bypass row security policies (CVE-2019-10130)

* postgresql: ALTER ... DEPENDS ON EXTENSION is missing authorization checks (CVE-2020-1720)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Bug Fix(es):

* Module stream postgresql:10 does not have correct module.md file (BZ#1857228)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the RHEL postgresql:10 package based on the guidance in RHSA-2020:3669.
