NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream postgresql-9.6 package and not the postgresql-9.6 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in PostgreSQL versions before 13.1, before 12.5, before 11.10, before 10.15, before 9.6.20 and before 9.5.24. An attacker having permission to create non-temporary objects in at least one schema can execute arbitrary SQL functions under the identity of a superuser. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
