Summary

A use-after-free bug in certain versions of PostgreSQL can lead to segmentation faults, affecting PostgreSQL 12 versions earlier than 12.7 and PostgreSQL 13 versions earlier than 13.3, with patches available in PostgreSQL 12.7 and 13.3, respectively. This bug potentially impacts GitLab EE versions 14.9 and later and GitLab CE versions 15.1 and later if they use an affected PostgreSQL version, while Omnibus GitLab instances with a bundled PostgreSQL server remain unaffected due to shipping with patched versions. Instances using impacted PostgreSQL versions are strongly encouraged to upgrade to the latest minor version for enhanced stability and security, with more information available in the issue documentation.
