Problem Note 68417: Security updates for PostgreSQL ODBC drivers for SAS® Viya® 3.5
 |  |  |  |  |
Severity: Medium
Description: The following version of the PostgreSQL ODBC driver is used as the underlying technology for the SAS® Infrastructure Data Server in SAS Viya 3.5:
- PostgreSQL 11.x (SAS Viya)
- PostgreSQL 12.x (SPRE)
This version of the PostgreSQL ODBC driver has the following known security vulnerabilities:
- Vulnerability Summary for CVE-2021-20229
- Vulnerability Summary for CVE-2021-3393
- Vulnerability Summary for CVE-2022-37434
Potential Impact:
- Users that have UPDATE but not SELECT permission might still be able to obtain information from Write-only columns.
- Users that have SELECT permission on only certain columns might still be able to gain information from all columns.
Updating the PostgreSQL ODBC driver from 11.x to 11.01 (SAS Viya) and PostgreSQL ODBC from 12.x to 12.02 (SPRE) addresses all of these security concerns.
