CVE-2026-55769

CloudNativePG (a Kubernetes operator for PostgreSQL) is vulnerable to privilege escalation to superuser in versions prior to 1.28.4 and 1.29.2 . The root cause is that superuser connections in fillDefaultParameters (pkg/management/postgres/pool/profiles.go) did not pin search_path. An attacker wi...

CVE-2026-55765

CloudNativePG (a Kubernetes-based PostgreSQL management platform) prior to 1.28.4 and 1.29.2 embedded cleartext role passwords in ALTER ROLE and CREATE ROLE statements generated by SetUserPassword and appendPasswordOption. When pg_stat_statements was preloaded with track_utility enabled, an untru...

CVE-2026-44477

A flaw was found in CloudNativePG's metrics exporter. The issue arises because the metrics exporter connected to PostgreSQL using a highly privileged account and did not properly restrict privileges during monitoring operations. A low-privileged database user could exploit this behavior through...

CVE-2026-44477

CloudNativePG is a platform designed to manage PostgreSQL databases within Kubernetes environments. Prior to 1.29.1 and 1.28.3, the CloudNativePG metrics exporter opens its PostgreSQL connection as the postgres superuser via the pod-local Unix socket, then demotes the session with SET ROLE...

Privilege Escalation

CloudNativePG is vulnerable to Privilege Escalation. The vulnerability is due to the metrics exporter establishing PostgreSQL sessions as the postgres superuser and relying on SET ROLE for privilege reduction, which allows an attacker to restore superuser privileges using RESET ROLE and execute...

GHSA-423P-G724-FR39 CloudNativePG's metrics exporter allows privilege escalation to PostgreSQL superuser and OS RCE

Impact The CloudNativePG metrics exporter opens its PostgreSQL connection as the postgres superuser via the pod-local Unix socket, then demotes the session with SET ROLE pgmonitor. SET ROLE changes only currentuser; sessionuser remains postgres. That residual superuser identity is the foothold fo...
