Description:
postgresql-8.2 - object-relational SQL database, version 8.2 server
Changes:
postgresql-8.2 (8.2.2-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New upstream security and bug fix release:
- Fix security vulnerabilities that allowed connected users to
read backend memory.
The vulnerabilities involve suppressing the normal check that a SQL
function returns the data type it's declared to, and changing the
data type of a table column (CVE-2007-0555, CVE-2007-0556). These
errors can easily be exploited to cause a backend crash, and in
principle might be used to read database content that the user
should not be able to access.
- Fix not-so-rare-anymore bug wherein btree index page splits could
fail due to choosing an infeasible split point.
- Properly handle to_char('CC') for years ending in 00.
Year 2000 is in the twentieth century, not the twenty-first.
- "/contrib/tsearch2" localization improvements.
- Fix incorrect permission check in information_schema.key_column_usage
view.
The symptom is "relation with OID nnnnn does not exist" errors. To
get this fix without using "initdb", use "CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW"
to install the corrected definition found in
"share/information_schema.sql". Note you will need to do this in
each database.
- Improve "VACUUM" performance for databases with many tables.
- Fix for rare Assert() crash triggered by UNION.
- Fix potentially incorrect results from index searches using ROW
inequality conditions.
- Tighten security of multi-byte character processing for UTF8
sequences over three bytes long.
- Fix possible crashes when an already-in-use PL/pgSQL function is
updated.
- Improve PL/pgSQL handling of domain types.
- Fix possible errors in processing PL/pgSQL exception blocks.
* debian/control: postgresql-client-8.2 provides postgresql-client. This
avoids breaking all the reverse dependencies to p-c when the transitional
package gets removed.
