+  <title>PostgreSQL: Insecure temporary file use in make_oidjoins_check</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    The make_oidjoins_check script, part of the PostgreSQL package, is
+    vulnerable to symlink attacks, potentially allowing a local user to
+    overwrite arbitrary files with the rights of the user running the utility.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    PostgreSQL is an open source database based on the POSTGRES database
+    management system. It includes several contributed scripts including
+    the make_oidjoins_check script.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    The make_oidjoins_check script insecurely creates temporary files in
+    world-writeable directories with predictable names.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could create symbolic links in the temporary files
+    directory, pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem. When
+    make_oidjoins_check is called, this would result in file overwrite with
+    the rights of the user running the utility, which could be the root
+    user.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All PostgreSQL users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge sync
+    
+    # emerge -pv "&gt;=dev-db/postgresql-7.4.5-r2"
+    # emerge "&gt;=dev-db/postgresql-7.4.5-r2"</code>
+    <p>
+    Upgrade notes: PostgreSQL 7.3.x users should upgrade to the latest
+    available 7.3.x version to retain database compatibility.
+    </p>
+  </resolution>
