Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:188
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : postgresql
Date : September 25, 2007
Affected: 2007.0, 2007.1, Corporate 3.0, Corporate 4.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

PostgreSQL 8.1 and probably later and earlier versions, when local
trust authentication is enabled and the Database Link library (dblink)
is installed, allows remote attackers to access arbitrary accounts
and execute arbitrary SQL queries via a dblink host parameter that
proxies the connection from 127.0.0.1. (CVE-2007-3278)

PostgreSQL 8.1 and probably later and earlier versions, when the
PL/pgSQL (plpgsql) language has been created, grants certain plpgsql
privileges to the PUBLIC domain, which allows remote attackers
to create and execute functions, as demonstrated by functions that
perform local brute-force password guessing attacks, which may evade
intrusion detection. (CVE-2007-3279)

The Database Link library (dblink) in PostgreSQL 8.1 implements
functions via CREATE statements that map to arbitrary libraries based
on the C programming language, which allows remote authenticated
superusers to map and execute a function from any library, as
demonstrated by using the system function in libc.so.6 to gain shell
access. (CVE-2007-3280)

Updated packages fix these issues, by requiring non-superusers who
use /contrib/dblink to use only password authentication.
