Highlights

Security Fix

Addresses JDBC vulnerability CVE-2022-21724 that has a CVSS score of 8.5, which is a High severity.

 

Note: The PostgreSQL JDBC driver version 42.3.2 that contains the security fix is bundled with the Replication Server.

If you have a RPM or Debian based Replication Server installation, the EDB JDBC driver for Advanced Server, which incorporates the community version 42.3.2, needs to be updated. For example, on RHEL7 or CentOS 7 distributions, run:

 yum update edb-jdbc
