CVE-2023-5002: Fedoraproject Fedora

High severity, CVSS 8.8. EPSS: 1.8% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

A flaw was found in pgAdmin. This issue occurs when the pgAdmin server HTTP API validates the path a user selects to external PostgreSQL utilities such as pg_dump and pg_restore. Versions of pgAdmin prior to 7.6 failed to properly control the server code executed on this API, allowing an authenticated user to run arbitrary commands on the server.

Affected products

• Fedoraproject Fedora: version 37 only; version 38 only
• Pgadmin Pgadmin 4: before 7.7 (fixed in 7.7)
