./databases/postgresql92-docs, PostgreSQL database documentation

Branch: pkgsrc-2013Q1, Version: 9.2.4, Package name: postgresql92-docs-9.2.4, Maintainer: adam

PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS (ORDBMS),
derived from the Berkeley Postgres database management system. While
PostgreSQL retains the powerful object-relational data model, rich data types
and easy extensibility of Postgres, it replaces the PostQuel query language
with an extended subset of SQL.

PostgreSQL is free and the complete source is available.

This package contains the database documentation.

   Log message:
   The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released a security update to all \ 
current versions of the PostgreSQL database system, including versions 9.2.4, \ 
9.1.9, 9.0.13, and 8.4.17. This update fixes a high-exposure security \ 
vulnerability in versions 9.0 and later. All users of the affected versions are \ 
strongly urged to apply the update immediately.

   A major security issue fixed in this release, CVE-2013-1899, makes it \ 
possible for a connection request containing a database name that begins with \ 
"-" to be crafted that can damage or destroy files within a server's \ 
data directory. Anyone with access to the port the PostgreSQL server listens on \ 
can initiate this request.

   Two lesser security fixes are also included in this release: CVE-2013-1900, \ 
wherein random numbers generated by contrib/pgcrypto functions may be easy for \ 
another database user to guess, and CVE-2013-1901, which mistakenly allows an \ 
unprivileged user to run commands that could interfere with in-progress backups. \ 
Finally, this release fixes two security issues with the graphical installers \ 
for Linux and Mac OS X: insecure passing of superuser passwords to a script, \ 
CVE-2013-1903 and the use of predictable filenames in /tmp CVE-2013-1902.
