+ Require execute permission on the trigger function for
+ <command>CREATE TRIGGER</> (Robert Haas)
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ This missing check could allow another user to execute a trigger
+ function with forged input data, by installing it on a table he owns.
+ This is only of significance for trigger functions marked
+ <literal>SECURITY DEFINER</>, since otherwise trigger functions run
+ as the table owner anyway. (CVE-2012-0866)

+
+ <para>
+ <application>pg_dump</> was incautious about sanitizing object names
+ that are emitted within SQL comments in its output script. A name
+ containing a newline would at least render the script syntactically
+ incorrect. Maliciously crafted object names could present a SQL
+ injection risk when the script is reloaded. (CVE-2012-0868)
