Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Authorization via the CREATE STATISTICS command. A table owner can exploit this vulnerability by creating a statistics object in an arbitrary schema, blocking other users with valid CREATE privileges from creating a statistics object with the same name. This results in a denial of service for legitimate CREATE STATISTICS users, as subsequent creation attempts will fail until the conflicting object is removed.
