critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 408340

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- pgjdbc, the PostgreSQL JDBC Driver, allows attacker to inject SQL if using PreferQueryMode=SIMPLE. Note
this is not the default. In the default mode there is no vulnerability. A placeholder for a numeric value
must be immediately preceded by a minus. There must be a second placeholder for a string value after the
first placeholder; both must be on the same line. By constructing a matching string payload, the attacker
can inject SQL to alter the query,bypassing the protections that parameterized queries bring against SQL
Injection attacks. Versions before 42.7.2, 42.6.1, 42.5.5, 42.4.4, 42.3.9, and 42.2.28 are affected.
