Package

maven org.postgresql:pgjdbc-aggregate (Maven)

Affected versions

< 42.2.5

Patched versions

42.2.5

Description

A weakness was found in postgresql-jdbc before version 42.2.5. It was possible to provide an SSL Factory and not check the host name if a host name verifier was not provided to the driver. This could lead to a condition where a man-in-the-middle attacker could masquerade as a trusted server by providing a certificate for the wrong host, as long as it was signed by a trusted CA.
