CVE-2014-2669: Multiple integer overflows in contrib/hstore/hstore_io.c in PostgreSQL 9.0.x before 9.0.16, 9.1.x before 9....

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old PostgreSQL hstore vulnerability. An authenticated database user could trigger integer overflow bugs that may lead to a buffer overflow and unspecified impact. Business urgency is highest for environments still running legacy PostgreSQL 9.0 through 9.3, especially where untrusted users can authenticate to databases using hstore. Exposure is likely limited to old PostgreSQL deployments in the affected version ranges. Risk increases if the hstore extension is installed or available and database access is granted to less-trusted authenticated users. Treat this as a legacy-risk cleanup item unless affected PostgreSQL versions are internet-reachable or shared with untrusted users. Prioritize upgrades where old database systems still support production workflows. Mitigation focus: Upgrade PostgreSQL to the fixed version for the deployed branch.; Apply relevant vendor packages from PostgreSQL, Red Hat, or Debian advisories.; Inventory and retire unsupported PostgreSQL 9.0 through 9.3 deployments..
