The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2023:7714 advisory.

  • postgresql: Memory disclosure in aggregate function calls (CVE-2023-5868)

  • postgresql: Buffer overrun from integer overflow in array modification (CVE-2023-5869)

  • postgresql: Role pg_signal_backend can signal certain superuser processes. (CVE-2023-5870)

  • postgresql: extension script @substitutions@ within quoting allow SQL injection (CVE-2023-39417)

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