Amazon Linux 2022 : (ALAS2022-2022-124)

Description

It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2022-2022-124 advisory. - 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. (CVE-2022-1552) Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
