Technical details
The vulnerability arises from hard-coded trust authentication entries at the top of generated pg_hba.conf files for Unix-socket and loopback connections. Since PostgreSQL evaluates authentication rules top-to-bottom, these entries preempt any operator-supplied authentication rules, allowing local and loopback connections without password verification. Under systemd orchestration, any OS account can connect; under Docker Swarm, exploitation requires code execution within the container. The fix in 0.11.0 switches to peer/certificate authentication for local connections.
