Percentile

PostgreSQL is vulnerable to privilege escalation. PostgreSQL improperly protected session-local state during the execution of an index function by a database superuser during the database maintenance operations. An authenticated database user could use this flaw to elevate their privileges via specially-crafted index functions.
