Debian: DSA-3269-2: postgresql-9.1 regression update
Summary
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/May_2015_Fsync_Permissions_Bug
For reference, the original advisory text follows.
Several vulnerabilities have been found in PostgreSQL-9.1, a SQL
database system.
CVE-2015-3165 (Remote crash)
SSL clients disconnecting just before the authentication timeout
expires can cause the server to crash.
CVE-2015-3166 (Information exposure)
The replacement implementation of snprintf() failed to check for
errors reported by the underlying system library calls; the main
case that might be missed is out-of-memory situations. In the worst
case this might lead to information exposure
CVE-2015-3167 (Possible side-channel key exposure)
In contrib/pgcrypto, some cases of decryption with an incorrect key
could report other error message texts. Fix by using a
one-size-fits-all message.
For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed
in version 9.1.16-0+deb7u2.
We recommend that you upgrade your postgresql-9.1 packages.
