Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
PostgreSQL (affected versions not specified)
Description
A memory disclosure issue was found in PostgreSQL, allowing remote users to access sensitive information by exploiting certain aggregate function calls with 'unknown'-type arguments. This occurs due to excessive data output in these function calls, enabling remote users to read some portion of system memory. Handling 'unknown'-type values from string literals without type designation can disclose bytes, potentially revealing notable and confidential information.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
