CVE-2024-10979

Incorrect control of environment variables in PostgreSQL PL/Perl allows an unprivileged database user to change sensitive process environment variables (e.g. PATH). That often suffices to enable arbitrary code execution, even if the attacker lacks a database server operating system user. Versions before PostgreSQL 17.1, 16.5, 15.9, 14.14, 13.17, and 12.21 are affected.

El control incorrecto de las variables de entorno en PostgreSQL PL/Perl permite que un usuario de base de datos sin privilegios modifique variables de entorno de proceso sensibles (por ejemplo, PATH). Esto suele ser suficiente para permitir la ejecución de código arbitrario, incluso si el atacante no tiene un usuario del sistema operativo del servidor de base de datos. Las versiones anteriores a PostgreSQL 17.1, 16.5, 15.9, 14.14, 13.17 y 12.21 se ven afectadas.
