The version of postgresql installed on the remote host is prior to 13.11-1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2POSTGRESQL13-2023-004 advisory.

    IN THE EXTENSION SCRIPT, a SQL Injection vulnerability was found in PostgreSQL if it uses @extowner@,     @extschema@, or @extschema:...@ inside a quoting construct (dollar quoting, '', or ). If an     administrator has installed files of a vulnerable, trusted, non-bundled extension, an attacker with     database-level CREATE privilege can execute arbitrary code as the bootstrap superuser. (CVE-2023-39417)

The remote Rocky Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RLSA-2023:7785 advisory.

  - IN THE EXTENSION SCRIPT, a SQL Injection vulnerability was found in PostgreSQL if it uses @extowner@,     @extschema@, or @extschema:...@ inside a quoting construct (dollar quoting, '', or ). If an     administrator has installed files of a vulnerable, trusted, non-bundled extension, an attacker with     database-level CREATE privilege can execute arbitrary code as the bootstrap superuser. (CVE-2023-39417)

  - A vulnerability was found in PostgreSQL with the use of the MERGE command, which fails to test new rows     against row security policies defined for UPDATE and SELECT. If UPDATE and SELECT policies forbid some     rows that INSERT policies do not forbid, a user could store such rows. (CVE-2023-39418)

  - A memory disclosure vulnerability was found in PostgreSQL that allows remote users to access sensitive     information by exploiting certain aggregate function calls with 'unknown'-type arguments. Handling     'unknown'-type values from string literals without type designation can disclose bytes, potentially     revealing notable and confidential information. This issue exists due to excessive data output in     aggregate function calls, enabling remote users to read some portion of system memory. (CVE-2023-5868)

  - A flaw was found in PostgreSQL that allows authenticated database users to execute arbitrary code through     missing overflow checks during SQL array value modification. This issue exists due to an integer overflow     during array modification where a remote user can trigger the overflow by providing specially crafted     data. This enables the execution of arbitrary code on the target system, allowing users to write arbitrary     bytes to memory and extensively read the server's memory. (CVE-2023-5869)

  - A flaw was found in PostgreSQL involving the pg_cancel_backend role that signals background workers,     including the logical replication launcher, autovacuum workers, and the autovacuum launcher. Successful     exploitation requires a non-core extension with a less-resilient background worker and would affect that     specific background worker only. This issue may allow a remote high privileged user to launch a denial of     service (DoS) attack. (CVE-2023-5870)

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 23.04 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6296-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled certain extension script substitutions. An attacker     having database-level CREATE privileges can use this issue to execute arbitrary code as the bootstrap     superuser. (CVE-2023-39417)

    It was discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled the MERGE command. A remote attacker could possibly     use this issue to bypass certain UPDATE and SELECT policies. This issue only affected Ubuntu 23.04.
