CVE-2022-1552 (GCVE-0-2022-1552)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2022-08-31 00:00 – Updated: 2024-08-03 00:10
VLAI
Summary
A flaw was found in PostgreSQL. There is an issue with incomplete efforts to operate safely when a privileged user is maintaining another user's objects. The Autovacuum, REINDEX, CREATE INDEX, REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW, CLUSTER, and pg_amcheck commands activated relevant protections too late or not at all during the process. This flaw allows an attacker with permission to create non-temporary objects in at least one schema to execute arbitrary SQL functions under a superuser identity.
