CVE-2026-6467
waiting for further signalsZero needs more public information before it can validate it.GHSA-pm32-vprj-4hwf ↗EUVD-2026-124434 ↗
description
PostgreSQL releases before 18.7, 17.12, 16.16, 15.20, and 14.25 mishandle object lookup during extension-related operations. A database user with CREATE privilege may cause attacker-selected SQL to run with bootstrap-superuser privileges.
mitigation
Upgrade PostgreSQL to 18.7, 17.12, 16.16, 15.20, or 14.25, as appropriate for the supported major version. Until upgraded, restrict database-level CREATE privilege to trusted users.
fixed in 18.7, 17.12, 16.16, 15.20, 14.25
outcome
Contextual, not validated: no deterministic check could cover this one, and no technique passed our review.
