Description

A flaw was found in PostgreSQL versions before 13.1, before 12.5, before 11.10, before 10.15, before 9.6.20 and before 9.5.24. If a client application that creates additional database connections only reuses the basic connection parameters while dropping security-relevant parameters, an opportunity for a man-in-the-middle attack, or the ability to observe clear-text transmissions, could exist. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.

Affected configurations

• postgresql postgresql (< 9.5.24) • postgresql postgresql (>= 9.6.0 < 9.6.20) • postgresql postgresql (>= 10.0 < 10.15) • postgresql postgresql (>= 11.0 < 11.10) • postgresql postgresql (>= 12.0 < 12.5) • postgresql postgresql (>= 13.0 < 13.1) • debian debian linux 9.0
