Topic

An update for postgresql16 is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10.0 Extended Update Support.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

Description

PostgreSQL is an advanced Object-Relational database management system (DBMS). The base postgresql package contains the client programs that you'll need to access a PostgreSQL DBMS server, as well as HTML documentation for the whole system. These client programs can be located on the same machine as the PostgreSQL server, or on a remote machine that accesses a PostgreSQL server over a network connection. The PostgreSQL server can be found in the postgresql-server sub-package.

Security Fix(es):

• postgresql: PostgreSQL oidvector discloses a few bytes of memory (CVE-2026-2003)
• postgresql: PostgreSQL missing validation of multibyte character length executes arbitrary code (CVE-2026-2006)
• postgresql: PostgreSQL intarray missing validation of type of input to selectivity estimator executes arbitrary code (CVE-2026-2004)
• postgresql: PostgreSQL pgcrypto heap buffer overflow executes arbitrary code (CVE-2026-2005)
