Noah Misch discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled the search_path setting when used with logical replication. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary SQL code.
This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
(CVE-2020-14349) Andres Freund discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled search path elements in CREATE EXTENSION. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary SQL code.
(CVE-2020-14350).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
