1) Problem Description and Brief Discussion

Two character set encoding related security problems were fixed in the
PostgreSQL database server:

CVE-2006-2313:
Akio Ishida and Yasuo Ohgaki discovered a weakness in the handling
of invalidly-encoded multibyte text data. If a client application
processed untrusted input without respecting its encoding and
applied standard string escaping techniques (such as replacing a
single quote >>'<< with >>\'<< or >>''<<), the PostgreSQL server
could interpret the resulting string in a way that allowed an
attacker to inject arbitrary SQL commands into the resulting SQL
query. The PostgreSQL server has been modified to reject such
invalidly encoded strings now, which completely fixes the problem
for some 'safe' multibyte encodings like UTF-8.

CVE-2006-2314:
However, there are some less popular and client-only multibyte
encodings (such as SJIS, BIG5, GBK, GB18030, and UHC) which
contain valid multibyte characters that end with the byte 0x5c,
which is the representation of the backslash character >>\<< in
ASCII. Many client libraries and applications use the non-standard,
but popular way of escaping the >>'<< character by replacing all
occurrences of it with >>\'<<. If a client application uses one of
the affected encodings and does not interpret multibyte characters,
and an attacker supplies a specially crafted byte sequence as an
input string parameter, this escaping method would then produce a
validly-encoded character and an excess >>'<< character which would
end the string. All subsequent characters would then be interpreted
as SQL code, so the attacker could execute arbitrary SQL commands.

To fix this vulnerability end-to-end, client-side applications
must be fixed to properly interpret multibyte encodings and use
>>''<< instead of >>\'<<. However, as a precautionary measure,
the sequence >>\'<< is now regarded as invalid when one of the
affected client encodings is in use. If you depend on the previous
behavior, you can restore it by setting 'backslash_quote = on'
in postgresql.conf. However, please be aware that this could
render you vulnerable again.

This issue does not affect you if you only use single-byte (like
SQL_ASCII or the ISO-8859-X family) or unaffected multibyte
(like UTF-8) encodings.

Please see http://www.postgresql.org/docs/techdocs.50 for further
details.

Unfortunately we are not yet able to provide back ported patches for
the PostgreSQL included in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 at this
time. We are working on a solution for this problem.

2) Solution or Work-Around

There is no known workaround, please install the update packages.

3) Special Instructions and Notes

If you are running a PostgreSQL server please make sure that it
is stopped or at least doesn't have any client connections during
the update.

If you are running or using a PostgreSQL server please carefully follow
the instructions in /usr/share/doc/packages/postgresql/SECURITY-NOTICE
to complete this security update

4) Package Location and Checksums

The preferred method for installing security updates is to use the YaST
Online Update (YOU) tool. YOU detects which updates are required and
automatically performs the necessary steps to verify and install them.
Alternatively, download the update packages for your distribution manually
and verify their integrity by the methods listed in Section 6 of this
announcement. Then install the packages using the command

rpm -Fhv <file.rpm>

to apply the update, replacing <file.rpm> with the filename of the
downloaded RPM package.

Our maintenance customers are notified individually. The packages are
offered for installation from the maintenance web:

6) Authenticity Verification and Additional Information

- Announcement authenticity verification:

SUSE security announcements are published via mailing lists and on Web
sites. The authenticity and integrity of a SUSE security announcement is
guaranteed by a cryptographic signature in each announcement. All SUSE
security announcements are published with a valid signature.

To verify the signature of the announcement, save it as text into a file
and run the command

gpg --verify <file>

replacing <file> with the name of the file where you saved the
announcement. The output for a valid signature looks like:

gpg: Signature made <DATE> using RSA key ID 3D25D3D9
gpg: Good signature from "SuSE Security Team <security@suse.de>"

where <DATE> is replaced by the date the document was signed.

If the security team's key is not contained in your key ring, you can
import it from the first installation CD. To import the key, use the
command

gpg --import gpg-pubkey-3d25d3d9-36e12d04.asc

- Package authenticity verification:

SUSE update packages are available on many mirror FTP servers all over the
world. While this service is considered valuable and important to the free
and open source software community, the authenticity and the integrity of
a package needs to be verified to ensure that it has not been tampered
with.

There are two verification methods that can be used independently from
each other to prove the authenticity of a downloaded file or RPM package:

1) Using the internal gpg signatures of the rpm package
2) MD5 checksums as provided in this announcement

1) The internal rpm package signatures provide an easy way to verify the
authenticity of an RPM package. Use the command

rpm -v --checksig <file.rpm>

to verify the signature of the package, replacing <file.rpm> with the
filename of the RPM package downloaded. The package is unmodified if it
contains a valid signature from build@suse.de with the key ID 9C800ACA.

This key is automatically imported into the RPM database (on
RPMv4-based distributions) and the gpg key ring of 'root' during
installation. You can also find it on the first installation CD and at
the end of this announcement.

2) If you need an alternative means of verification, use the md5sum
command to verify the authenticity of the packages. Execute the command

md5sum <filename.rpm>

after you downloaded the file from a SUSE FTP server or its mirrors.
Then compare the resulting md5sum with the one that is listed in the
SUSE security announcement. Because the announcement containing the
checksums is cryptographically signed (by security@suse.de), the
checksums show proof of the authenticity of the package if the
signature of the announcement is valid. Note that the md5 sums
published in the SUSE Security Announcements are valid for the
respective packages only. Newer versions of these packages cannot be
verified.
