NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream postgresql:13/postgresql-upgrade-devel package and not the postgresql:13/postgresql-upgrade-devel package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

Improper neutralization of newlines in pg_dump in PostgreSQL allows a user of the origin server to inject arbitrary code for restore-time execution as the client operating system account running psql to restore the dump, via psql meta-commands inside a purpose-crafted object name. The same attacks can achieve SQL injection as a superuser of the restore target server. pg_dumpall, pg_restore, and pg_upgrade are also affected. Versions before PostgreSQL 17.6, 16.10, 15.14, 14.19, and 13.22 are affected. Versions before 11.20 are unaffected. CVE-2012-0868 had fixed this class of problem, but version 11.20 reintroduced it.
