Reporting a vulnerability

Please do not open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.

Report them privately via GitHub's Security Advisories feature, or send an email to the repository owner.

Include:

  • A description of the vulnerability and its potential impact
  • Steps to reproduce or a proof-of-concept
  • PostgreSQL version, OS, and extension version

You can expect an acknowledgement within 72 hours and a resolution timeline within 14 days for confirmed issues.

Scope

This project is a PostgreSQL extension that runs inside the PostgreSQL server process with superuser privileges. The relevant threat model is:

  • In scope: vulnerabilities reachable by a non-superuser database user that elevate privileges or cause data corruption/loss.
  • Out of scope: attacks that already require superuser or OS-level access, denial-of-service via ring buffer exhaustion (this is a known design trade-off, documented in the README).

There aren't any published security advisories
