GHSA-423p-g724-fr39
HIGHCVE-2026-44477The CloudNativePG metrics exporter opens its PostgreSQL connection as the postgres superuser via the pod-local Unix socket, then demotes the session with SET ROLE pgmonitor. SET ROLE changes only currentuser; sessionuser remains postgres. That residual superuser identity is the foothold for the rest of the chain.
