postgresql-9.5 vulnerabilities
Details

Jacob Champion discovered that PostgreSQL incorrectly handled SSL certificate verification and encryption. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to inject arbitrary SQL queries when a connection is first established. (CVE-2021-23214)

Tom Lane discovered that PostgreSQL incorrect handled certain array subscripting calculations. An authenticated attacker could possibly use this issue to overwrite server memory and escalate privileges. (CVE-2021-32027)
