Echo: postgresql-15: security update to 15.14multiple postgresql-17 packages: security update to 17.6

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 460632

Description

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

 - Improper neutralization of newlines in pg_dump in PostgreSQL allows a user of the origin server to inject
 arbitrary code for restore-time execution as the client operating system account running psql to restore
 the dump, via psql meta-commands inside a purpose-crafted object name. The same attacks can achieve SQL
 injection as a superuser of the restore target server. pg_dumpall, pg_restore, and pg_upgrade are also
 affected. Versions before PostgreSQL 17.6, 16.10, 15.14, 14.19, and 13.22 are affected. Versions before
 11.20 are unaffected. CVE-2012-0868 had fixed this class of problem, but version 11.20 reintroduced it.
 (CVE-2025-8715)

Solution

Update the postgresql-15 library and its related packages to version 15.14 or later.
