Package : pgpool2 Version : 4.1.4-3+deb11u1 CVE ID : CVE-2023-22332 CVE-2024-45624

Two vulnerabilities were discovered in pgpool2, a connection pool server and replication proxy for PostgreSQL.

CVE-2023-22332

A specific database user's authentication information may be obtained by another database user. As a result, the information stored in the database may be altered and/or database may be suspended by a remote attacker who successfully logged in the product with the obtained credentials.

CVE-2024-45624

When the query cache feature is enabled, it was possible that a database user can read rows from tables that should not be visible for the user through query cache.

For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version 4.1.4-3+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your pgpool2 packages.
