CVSSv4.0: 1.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2024-7348

CWE-ID: CWE-367 - Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to escalate privileges within the database.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition when executing concurrent pg_dump sessions. A remote user with privileges to create and drop non-temporary objects can execute arbitrary SQL commands with the privileges of the role running pg_dump (which is often a superuser).

Mitigation

Update the affected package postgresql16 to the latest version.
