SQL injection in PostgreSQL reindexdb allows an object creator to execute arbitrary SQL as the database user running reindexdb, via a crafted index name embedded in the parallel catalog query for --jobs with --index. Within major versions 17-18, minor versions before PostgreSQL 18.7 and 17.12 are affected. Versions before PostgreSQL 17 are unaffected.
Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
