Description
Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition in pg_dump in PostgreSQL allows an object creator to execute arbitrary SQL functions as the user running pg_dump, which is often a superuser. The attack involves replacing another relation type with a view or foreign table. The attack requires waiting for pg_dump to start, but winning the race condition is trivial if the attacker retains an open transaction. Versions before PostgreSQL 16.4, 15.8, 14.13, 13.16, and 12.20 are affected.
Affected configurations
• postgresql postgresql (>= 12.0 < 12.20)
• postgresql postgresql (>= 13.0 < 13.16)
• postgresql postgresql (>= 14.0 < 14.13)
• postgresql postgresql (>= 15.0 < 15.8)
• postgresql postgresql (>= 16.0 < 16.4)
