"The remote Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced
in the ALINUX3-SA-2023:0139 advisory.

    Package updates are available for Alibaba Cloud Linux 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    CVE-2023-39417:
    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-2023-5868:
    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-2023-5869:
    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-2023-5870:
    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.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Alibaba Cloud Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
