REDHAT-BUG-546621: Integer Overflow

First published: Fri Dec 11 2009(Updated: )

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way postgresql used to calculate size for the hashtable for joined relations. An attacker could formulate a specially-crafted sql query, which once processed would lead to denial of service (postgresql daemon crash).
