"The version of PostgreSQL installed on the remote host is 12 prior to 12.20, 13 prior to 13.16, 14 prior to 14.13, 15
prior to 15.8, or 16 prior to 16.4. As such, it is potentially affected by a vulnerability :
- Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition in pg_dump in PostgreSQL allows an object creator to
execute arbitrary SQL functions as the user running pg_dump, which is often a superuser. The attack
involves replacing another relation type with a view or foreign table. The attack requires waiting for
pg_dump to start, but winning the race condition is trivial if the attacker retains an open transaction.
Versions before PostgreSQL 16.4, 15.8, 14.13, 13.16, and 12.20 are affected. (CVE-2024-7348)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
