Description Murray McAllister 2014-02-14 07:38:13 UTC

A Coverity scan revealed a number of possible buffer overflow flaws in PostgreSQL. An authenticated database user could possibly use these flaws to crash the PostgreSQL server or execute arbitrary code.

Acknowledgements:

Red Hat would like to thank the PostgreSQL project for reporting this issue. Upstream acknowledges Peter Eisentraut and Jozef Mlich as the original reporters.

This is now public, although unfortunately it looks like it has two CVEs fixed in one patch (CVE-2014-0065 for buffer overruns, CVE-2014-0066 for crypt())
