Descriptions

PostgreSQL 8.2 before 8.2.6, 8.1 before 8.1.11, 8.0 before 8.0.15, 7.4 before 7.4.19, and 7.3 before 7.3.21 uses superuser privileges instead of table owner privileges for (1) VACUUM and (2) ANALYZE operations within index functions, and supports (3) SET ROLE and (4) SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION within index functions, which allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges.

PostgreSQL 8.2 anterior a 8.2.6, 8.1 anterior a 8.1.11, 8.0 anterior a 8.0.15, 7.4 anterior a 7.4.19, y 7.3 anterior a 7.3.21 utiliza privilegios de super usuario en lugar de los privilegios del propietario de la tabla para las operaciones (1) VACUUM y (2) ANALYZE en funciones de índice, y soporta (3) SET ROLE y (4) SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION en funciones de índice, lo cual permite a usuarios remotos autenticados obtener privilegios.
