rh-postgresql95-postgresql-9.5.9-1.el7

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system (DBMS).

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: rh-
postgresql95-postgresql (9.5.9). (BZ#1484637, BZ#1484642, BZ#1484648)

Security Fix(es):

* It was found that authenticating to a PostgreSQL database account with an
empty password was possible despite libpq's refusal to send an empty password. A
remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to gain access to database
accounts with empty passwords. (CVE-2017-7546)

* An authorization flaw was found in the way PostgreSQL handled access to the
pg_user_mappings view on foreign servers. A remote, authenticated attacker could
potentially use this flaw to retrieve passwords from the user mappings defined
by the foreign server owners without actually having the privileges to do so.
(CVE-2017-7547)

* An authorization flaw was found in the way PostgreSQL handled large objects.
A remote, authenticated attacker with no privileges on a large object could
potentially use this flaw to overwrite the entire content of the object, thus
resulting in denial of service. (CVE-2017-7548)

Asianux would like to thank the PostgreSQL project for reporting these issues.
