[V13]Vulnerable version of PostgreSQL bundled with VSA v13

Post by TYamamoto »

Dear Veeam R&D Team,

I hope you are doing well.
We would like to inquire about the version of PostgreSQL bundled with the Veeam v13 Software Appliance.

Recently, several PostgreSQL vulnerabilities have been reported with the following CVE IDs:
* CVE-2025-8713
* CVE-2025-8714
* CVE-2025-8715
* CVE-2026-2003
* CVE-2026-2004
* CVE-2026-2005
* CVE-2026-2006

According to the PostgreSQL advisory, the affected versions are PostgreSQL 14 through 18, and the issues are fixed in the following versions:
* 14.21
* 15.16
* 16.12
* 17.8
* 18.2

We checked the PostgreSQL version included in the **Veeam v13 Software Appliance** using Veeam Intelligence, and it appears to be:

`PostgreSQL 17.6 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 11.5.0 20240719 (Red Hat 11.5.0-5), 64-bit`

Since version **17.6** seems to fall within the vulnerable range, we would like to confirm the following:

1. Is Veeam aware of this vulnerability affecting the PostgreSQL version bundled with the v13 Software Appliance?
2. Are there plans to update the embedded PostgreSQL version to **17.8 or later** in a future update or patch of the v13 Software Appliance?

The appliance is currently updated to the latest version via the built-in updater, but the PostgreSQL version does not appear to have been updated.

We would appreciate your guidance on this matter.

Best regards,
Tetsuo

Could you please confirm whether this update addresses the PostgreSQL vulnerability CVE-2026-2006 affecting the PostgreSQL version bundled with the Veeam Software Appliance (VSA) v13?

Thank you in advance for your clarification.

Hello,
the updates from yesterday are for Veeam software components. Not for Postgres.

Best regards
