Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
PostgreSQL (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue is related to a SQL injection vulnerability in PostgreSQL extensions that use specific constructs (
@extowner@, @extschema@, or @extschema:...@) inside quoting constructs (dollar quoting, '', or ""). This vulnerability can allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries on the database. If an administrator has installed files of a vulnerable, trusted, non-bundled extension, an attacker with database-level CREATE privilege can execute arbitrary code as the bootstrap superuser.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
