Doc Text:
A flaw was found in PostgreSQL. This vulnerability allows an authenticated database user with object creation privileges to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the operating system user running the database service. The issue stems from a use-after-free flaw (accessing memory after it has been released) during portal setup, which occurs when user-defined code executes during query planning or execution startup and closes the portal currently being prepared.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-12 14:31:32 UTC
Use after free in PostgreSQL portal setup allows an object creator to execute arbitrary code as the operating system user running the database, via running user-defined code during planning or executor startup that closes the portal currently being prepared.  Versions before PostgreSQL 18.7, 17.12, 16.16, 15.20, and 14.25 are affected.
