CVE-2018-1058

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions PostgreSQL versions 9.3 through 10

Description The issue is related to insufficient access control in the PostgreSQL database management system. It allows a remote attacker to elevate their privileges and execute arbitrary code. An attacker with a user account can exploit this flaw to execute code with superuser permissions in the database.

Recommendations For versions 9.3 through 10, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue to prevent exploitation. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive database operations to minimize the risk of privilege escalation.
