This fixes some vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious users to disclose sensitive information, manipulate certain data, and by malicious people to disclose sensitive information, cause a DoS (Denial of Service), and potentially compromise a vulnerable system. For more information: SA33338 SA33853 SA33884 SA34035 SA34481 SA34746 SA34797 SA35021 SA35128 SA35216 SA35296 SA35344 SA35422 1) A boundary error exists within the "pg_db_putline()" function in perl-DBD-Pg's dbdimp.c. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow if malicious rows are retrieved from the database using the "pg_getline()" or "getline()" function. 2) A memory leak exists within the function "dequote_bytea()" in perl-DBD-Pg's quote.c, which can be exploited to cause a memory exhaustion. 3) Various integer overflow errors exist within the "pdftops" application. This can be exploited to e.g. cause a crash or potentially execute arbitrary code by printing a specially crafted PDF file. 4) A vulnerability is caused due to an assertion error in bgpd when handling an AS path containing multiple 4 byte AS numbers, which can be exploited to crash to the daemon by advertising specially crafted AS paths. SOLUTION: Apply updated packages via YaST Online Update or the SUSE FTP server.
