EulerOS 2.0 SP3 : postgresql (EulerOS-SA-2022-2631)

high Nessus Plugin ID 166662

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the postgresql packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- A flaw was found in PostgreSQL. There is an issue with incomplete efforts to operate safely when a privileged user is maintaining another user's objects. The Autovacuum, REINDEX, CREATE INDEX, REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW, CLUSTER, and pg_amcheck commands activated relevant protections too late or not at all during the process. This flaw allows an attacker with permission to create non-temporary objects in at least one schema to execute arbitrary SQL functions under a superuser identity. (CVE-2022-1552)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected postgresql packages.
