"The version of postgresql installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore,
affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-10976 advisory.
- Incomplete tracking in PostgreSQL of tables with row security allows a reused query to view or change
different rows from those intended. CVE-2023-2455 and CVE-2016-2193 fixed most interaction between row
security and user ID changes. They missed cases where a subquery, WITH query, security invoker view, or
SQL-language function references a table with a row-level security policy. This has the same consequences
as the two earlier CVEs. That is to say, it leads to potentially incorrect policies being applied in cases
where role-specific policies are used and a given query is planned under one role and then executed under
other roles. This scenario can happen under security definer functions or when a common user and query is
planned initially and then re-used across multiple SET ROLEs. Applying an incorrect policy May permit a
user to complete otherwise-forbidden reads and modifications. This affects only databases that have used
CREATE POLICY to define a row security policy. An attacker must tailor an attack to a particular
application's pattern of query plan reuse, user ID changes, and role-specific row security policies.
Versions before PostgreSQL 17.1, 16.5, 15.9, 14.14, 13.17, and 12.21 are affected. (CVE-2024-10976)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
