{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2022-2625","details":"A vulnerability was found in PostgreSQL. This attack requires permission to create non-temporary objects in at least one schema, the ability to lure or wait for an administrator to create or update an affected extension in that schema, and the ability to lure or wait for a victim to use the object targeted in CREATE OR REPLACE or CREATE IF NOT EXISTS. Given all three prerequisites, this flaw allows an attacker to run arbitrary code as the victim role, which may be a superuser.","modified":"2026-04-22T13:20:05.561534Z","published":"2022-08-15T00:00:00Z","related":["USN-5571-1"],"upstream":["CVE-2022-2625"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2022-2625"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.postgresql.org/support/security/CVE-2022-2625/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-5571-1"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2022-2625"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"postgresql-9.3","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:14.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/postgresql-9.3@9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1?arch=source&distro=esm-infra-legacy/trusty"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["9.3.1-1","9.3.2-1","9.3.2-1ubuntu1","9.3.2-1ubuntu2","9.3.3-1","9.3.3-1bzr1","9.3.3-1bzr2","9.3.4-1","9.3.5-0ubuntu0.14.04.1","9.3.6-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.7-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.8-0ubuntu0.4.04","9.3.9-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.10-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.11-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.12-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.13-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.14-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.15-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.16-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.17-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1","9.3.19-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.20-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.21-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.22-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.23-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04","9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libecpg-compat3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"libecpg6","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"libpgtypes3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1","binary_name":"libpq5"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-9.3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-client-9.3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-contrib-9.3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-doc-9.3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-plperl-9.3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-plpython-9.3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-plpython3-9.3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-pltcl-9.3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-server-dev-9.3","binary_version":"9.3.24-0ubuntu0.14.04+esm1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2022/UBUNTU-CVE-2022-2625.json"}},{"package":{"name":"postgresql-9.5","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/postgresql-9.5@9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10?arch=source&distro=esm-infra/xenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["9.5.0-1","9.5.0-2","9.5.0-3","9.5.1-1","9.5.2-1","9.5.3-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.4-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.5-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.6-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.7-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.8-0ubuntu0.16.04.1","9.5.9-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.10-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.11-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.12-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.13-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.14-0ubuntu0.16.04","9.5.16-0ubuntu0.16.04.1","9.5.17-0ubuntu0.16.04.1","9.5.18-0ubuntu0.16.04.1","9.5.19-0ubuntu0.16.04.1","9.5.21-0ubuntu0.16.04.1","9.5.23-0ubuntu0.16.04.1","9.5.24-0ubuntu0.16.04.1","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm1","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm2","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm3","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm4","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm5","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm6","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm7","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm8","9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"libecpg-compat3","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10","binary_name":"libecpg6"},{"binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10","binary_name":"libpgtypes3"},{"binary_name":"libpq5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-9.5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-client-9.5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-contrib-9.5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-doc-9.5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-plperl-9.5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-plpython-9.5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-plpython3-9.5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-pltcl-9.5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"},{"binary_name":"postgresql-server-dev-9.5","binary_version":"9.5.25-0ubuntu0.16.04.1+esm10"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2022/UBUNTU-CVE-2022-2625.json"}},{"package":{"name":"postgresql-10","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:18.04:LT
