CVE-2018-10936

CVSS v3.1

8.1

High

VectorAV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions postgresql-jdbc versions prior to 42.2.5
Description A weakness was found that could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to masquerade as a trusted server. This occurs when an SSL Factory is provided without a host name verifier, allowing an attacker to provide a certificate for the wrong host, as long as it is signed by a trusted CA.
Recommendations For versions prior to 42.2.5, update to version 42.2.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider providing a host name verifier to the driver to ensure the host name is checked.
