Summary
postgresql-14, postgresql-16, postgresql-17 vulnerabilities
Details

Jelte Fennema-Nio discovered that the PostgreSQL CREATE STATISTICS command did not correctly check for schema CREATE privileges. An authenticated attacker could possibly use this issue to create a denial of service against other CREATE STATISTICS users. (CVE-2025-12817)

Aleksey Solovev discovered that the PostgreSQL libpq client library incorrectly handled certain memory operations. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause libpq to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2025-12818)
