NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream postgresql-contrib package and not the postgresql-contrib package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
PostgreSQL versions 10.x before 10.9 and versions 11.x before 11.4 are vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow. Any authenticated user can overflow a stack-based buffer by changing the user's own password to a purpose-crafted value. This often suffices to execute arbitrary code as the PostgreSQL operating system account.
