CVE-2005-1410: PostgreSQL

Low severity, CVSS 2.1. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The tsearch2 module in PostgreSQL 7.4 through 8.0.x declares the (1) dex_init, (2) snb_en_init, (3) snb_ru_init, (4) spell_init, and (5) syn_init functions as "internal" even when they do not take an internal argument, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly have other impacts via SQL commands that call other functions that accept internal arguments.

Affected products

• PostgreSQL PostgreSQL: version 7.4 only; version 7.4.3 only; version 7.4.5 only; version 7.4.6 only; version 7.4.7 only; version 8.0 only; …
• Trustix Secure Linux: version 2.0 only
