A flaw was found in PostgreSQL's "ALTER ... DEPENDS ON EXTENSION", where sub-commands did not perform authorization checks. An authenticated attacker could use this flaw in certain configurations to perform drop objects such as function, triggers, et al., leading to database corruption.
A flaw was found in HTTP/2. An attacker, sending a stream of header with a 0-length header name and a 0-length header value, could cause some implementations to allocate memory for these headers and keep the allocations alive until the session dies. The can consume excess memory, potentially leading to a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
A user having some UPDATE privilege on a partitioned table but lacking the SELECT privilege on some column may nonetheless be able to acquire denied-column values from an error message. This is similar to CVE-2014-8161, but the conditions for exploitation are more rare.
The PostgreSQL project thanks Heikki Linnakangas for reporting this problem.
CVE-2023-2455: Row security policies disregard user ID changes after inlining.
Versions Affected: 11 - 15. This problem is quite old.
While CVE-2016-2193 fixed most interaction between row security and user ID changes, it missed a scenario involving function inlining. This leads to potentially incorrect policies being applied in cases where role-specific policies are used and a given query is planned under one role and then executed under other roles. This scenario can happen under security definer functions or when a common user and query is planned initially and then re-used across multiple SET ROLEs. Applying an incorrect policy may permit a user to complete otherwise-forbidden reads and modifications. This affects only databases that have used CREATE POLICY to define a row security policy.

A flaw was found in redis. When using the Redis Lua Debugger, users can send malformed requests that cause the debugger’s protocol parser to read data beyond the actual buffer, potentially leading to an information disclosure.
A memory disclosure vulnerability was found in PostgreSQL that allows remote users to access sensitive information by exploiting certain aggregate function calls with 'unknown'-type arguments. Handling 'unknown'-type values from string literals without type designation can disclose bytes, potentially revealing notable and confidential information. This issue exists due to excessive data output in aggregate function calls, enabling remote users to read some portion of system memory.
A flaw was found in Python 3's pydoc. This flaw allows a local or adjacent attacker who discovers or can convince another local or adjacent user to start a pydoc server to access the server and then use it to disclose sensitive information belonging to the other user that they would not normally have the ability to access. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality.
A flaw was found in PostgreSQL involving the pgcancelbackend role that signals background workers, including the logical replication launcher, autovacuum workers, and the autovacuum launcher. Successful exploitation requires a non-core extension with a less-resilient background worker and would affect that specific background worker only. This issue may allow a remote high privileged user to launch a denial of service (DoS) attack.
Fixed bug (Uninitialized read in gdImageCreateFromXbm) (CVE-2019-11038).
A flaw was found in Python, specifically in the FTP (File Transfer Protocol) client library in PASV (passive) mode. The issue is how the FTP client trusts the host from the PASV response by default. This flaw allows an attacker to set up a malicious FTP server that can trick FTP clients into connecting back to a given IP address and port. This vulnerability could lead to FTP client scanning ports, which otherwise would not have been possible.
A Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability was found in the python-lxml's clean module. The module's parser did not properly imitate browsers, causing different behaviors between the sanitizer and the user's page. This flaw allows a remote attacker to run arbitrary HTML/JS code. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality and integrity.
A flaw was found in PostgreSQL in versions before 13.2. This flaw allows a user with SELECT privilege on one column to craft a special query that returns all columns of the table. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.

The mirroring support (-M, --use-mirrors) in Python Pip before 1.5 uses insecure DNS querying and authenticity checks which allows attackers to perform man-in-the-middle attacks.
