Description Jan Lieskovsky 2009-12-11 08:30:41 EST

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way postgresql
used to calculate size for the hashtable for joined 
relations. An attacker could formulate a specially-crafted
sql query, which once processed would lead to denial of
service (postgresql daemon crash).
