CVE-2006-0678
Status: ModifiedLow (1.5)—
PostgreSQL 7.3.x before 7.3.14, 7.4.x before 7.4.12, 8.0.x before 8.0.7, and 8.1.x before 8.1.3, when compiled with Asserts enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (server crash) via a crafted SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION command, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-0553.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:P
- Base score: 1.5
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.34%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 25
- Score date: 10/7/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
