Echo: postgresql-15: security update to 15.19postgresql-17: security update to 17.11

low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 463987

Description

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

 - Incorrect ownership assignment in PostgreSQL ALTER TABLE ALTER TYPE command reassigns ownership of
 dependent statistics objects to the current user. This wrongly allows the table owner to run DROP
 STATISTICS and ALTER STATISTICS via this improper ownership. It wrongly denies those commands to the prior
 statistics object owner. DROP TABLE remains able to remove statistics objects, so this exploit achieves
 nothing in many ownership arrangements. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19, and 14.24
 are affected. (CVE-2026-6469)

Solution

Update the postgresql-15 library and its related packages to version 15.19 or later.
