Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for rh-postgresql10-postgresql.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2018:2565 advisory.

- postgresql: Too-permissive access control list on function pg_logfile_rotate() (CVE-2018-1115)

- postgresql: Certain host connection parameters defeat client-side security defenses (CVE-2018-10915)
