Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Time-of-Check Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) Race Condition in the pg_dump command. A user can execute arbitrary SQL by replacing another relation type with a view or foreign table. While the victim needs to run pg_dump to be vulnerable, the attacker can exploit the race condition reliably by leaving a transaction open.
