NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream postgresql-upgrade package and not the postgresql-upgrade package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

When the server is configured to use trust authentication with a clientcert requirement or to use cert authentication, a man-in-the-middle attacker can inject arbitrary SQL queries when a connection is first established, despite the use of SSL certificate verification and encryption.
