CVE-ID: CVE-2015-8011
CWE-ID:
CWE-119 - Memory corruption
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

2) Untrusted search path
EUVDB-ID: #VU45748
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 4.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2020-14349
CWE-ID:
CWE-426 - Untrusted Search Path
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote user to escalate privileges within the database.

replication publisher or subscriber database can create objects in the public
schema and harness them to execute arbitrary SQL functions under the identity
running replication, often a superuser.
