Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the PostgreSQL
database system.
CVE-2023-5868
Jingzhou Fu discovered a memory disclosure flaw in aggregate
function calls.
CVE-2023-5869
Pedro Gallegos reported integer overflow flaws resulting in buffer
overflows in the array modification functions.
CVE-2023-5870
Hemanth Sandrana and Mahendrakar Srinivasarao reported that the
pg_cancel_backend role can signal certain superuser processes,
potentially resulting in denial of service.
CVE-2023-39417
Micah Gate, Valerie Woolard, Tim Carey-Smith, and Christoph Berg
reported that an extension script using @substitutions@ within
quoting may allow to perform an SQL injection for an attacker having
database-level CREATE privileges.

A flaw was found in PostgreSQL involving the pg_cancel_backend role that signals background workers, including the logical replication launcher, autovacuum workers, and the autovacuum launcher. Successful exploitation requires a non-core extension with a less-resilient background worker and would affect that specific background worker only. This issue may allow a remote high privileged user to launch a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Debian Linux Security Advisory 5553-1 - Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the PostgreSQL database system.

Ubuntu Security Notice 6296-1 - It was discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled certain extension script substitutions. An attacker having database-level CREATE privileges can use this issue to execute arbitrary code as the bootstrap superuser. It was discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled the MERGE command. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass certain UPDATE and SELECT policies. This issue only affected Ubuntu 23.04.
IN THE EXTENSION SCRIPT, a SQL Injection vulnerability was found in PostgreSQL if it uses @extowner@, @extschema@, or @extschema:...@ inside a quoting construct (dollar quoting, '', or ""). 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.
