PostgreSQL 9.2.x before 9.2.4 and 9.1.x before 9.1.9 does not properly check REPLICATION privileges, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended backup restrictions by calling the (1) pg_start_backup or (2) pg_stop_backup functions.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw let an authenticated PostgreSQL user bypass intended backup restrictions in affected 9.1 and 9.2 releases. The issue concerns access control around backup functions, not unauthenticated takeover. Business urgency depends on whether old PostgreSQL instances are still running and whether untrusted users can log into them. Exposure is most likely in legacy environments still running PostgreSQL 9.1.x or 9.2.x below the fixed releases. Risk is higher where database accounts are shared, third-party users can authenticate, or backup privileges were relied on for separation of duties. Prioritize remediation if any affected legacy PostgreSQL systems remain reachable by non-admin or third-party accounts. For fully upgraded or retired 9.1/9.2 deployments, residual urgency is low, but confirm through asset inventory rather than assumptions. Mitigation focus: Upgrade PostgreSQL 9.2 systems to 9.2.4 or later.; Upgrade PostgreSQL 9.1 systems to 9.1.9 or later.; Apply relevant vendor packages from your operating system distributor..
