Amazon Linux 2 Security Advisory: ALAS-2022-1843
Advisory Release Date: 2022-09-01 21:09 Pacific
Advisory Updated Date: 2022-09-14 00:02 Pacific
A flaw was found in PostgreSQL. There is an issue with incomplete efforts to operate safely when a privileged user is maintaining another user's objects. The Autovacuum, REINDEX, CREATE INDEX, REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW, CLUSTER, and pg_amcheck commands activated relevant protections too late or not at all during the process. This flaw allows an attacker with permission to create non-temporary objects in at least one schema to execute arbitrary SQL functions under a superuser identity. (CVE-2022-1552)
Affected Packages:
postgresql
