Title:PostgreSQL 11.x < 11.13, 12.x < 12.8, 13.x < 13.4 Memory Disclosure Vulnerability - Linux
Summary:PostgreSQL is prone to a memory disclosure vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
PostgreSQL is prone to a memory disclosure vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
A purpose-crafted query can read arbitrary bytes of server
memory. In the default configuration, any authenticated database user can complete this attack at
will. The attack does not require the ability to create objects. If server settings include
max_worker_processes=0, the known versions of this attack are infeasible. However, undiscovered
variants of the attack may be independent of that setting.

Affected Software/OS:
PostgreSQL 11.0 through 11.12, 12.0 through 12.7 and 13.0
through 13.3.

Solution:
Update to version 11.13, 12.8, 13.4 or later.

CVSS Score:
