Descriptions

CREATE TRIGGER in PostgreSQL 8.3.x before 8.3.18, 8.4.x before 8.4.11, 9.0.x before 9.0.7, and 9.1.x before 9.1.3 does not properly check the execute permission for trigger functions marked SECURITY DEFINER, which allows remote authenticated users to execute otherwise restricted triggers on arbitrary data by installing the trigger on an attacker-owned table.

CREATE TRIGGER en PostgreSQL v8.3.x antes de v8.3.18, v8.4.x antes de v8.4.11, v9.0.x antes de v9.0.7 y v9.1.x antes v9.1.3, no comprueba correctamente el permiso de ejecuciĆ³n de las funciones de disparo marcados como SECURITY DEFINER, lo que permite a usuarios autenticados remotamente ejecutar los disparadores restringidos en datos arbitrarios mediante la instalaciĆ³n del disparador en una tabla propiedad del atacante.
