Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-12 14:32:21 UTC
Untrusted search path in PostgreSQL vacuumdb allows a database owner to execute arbitrary SQL as the database user running vacuumdb, via shadowing operators used in the --missing-stats-only catalog query.  The pg_upgrade documentation recommends an affected vacuumdb invocation.  Within major version 18, minor versions before PostgreSQL 18.7 are affected.  Versions before PostgreSQL 18 are unaffected.
