Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2009-344

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2009-344
Posted Dec 30, 2009
Authored by Mandriva | Site mandriva.com

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2009-344 - Heap-based buffer overflow in the DBD::Pg module for Perl might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified input to an application that uses the getline and pg_getline functions to read database rows. Memory leak in the dequote_bytea function in quote.c in the DBD::Pg (aka DBD-Pg or libdbd-pg-perl) module before 2.0.0 for Perl allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by fetching data with BYTEA columns. Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0 customers. This update provides a fix for these vulnerabilities.

Package : perl-DBD-Pg
Date : December 28, 2009
Affected: 2008.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Multiple vulnerabilities was discovered and corrected in perl-DBD-Pg:

Heap-based buffer overflow in the DBD::Pg module for Perl might allow
context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified
input to an application that uses the getline and pg_getline functions
to read database rows.

Memory leak in the dequote_bytea function in quote.c in the DBD::Pg
(aka DBD-Pg or libdbd-pg-perl) module before 2.0.0 for Perl allows
context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory
consumption) by fetching data with BYTEA columns (CVE-2009-1341).

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0
customers.

This update provides a fix for these vulnerabilities.
