Unauthenticated Access in Bitnami PostgreSQL Docker Image and Helm Chart
CVE-2025-22248
What is CVE-2025-22248?
The Bitnami PostgreSQL Docker image and PostgreSQL HA Helm chart have a significant security flaw that allows unauthorized access. By default, these configurations include a 'repmgr' user that permits unauthenticated connections to the database within the cluster. The PGPOOL_SR_CHECK_USER, which Pgpool utilizes for streaming replication checks, is misconfigured at a trust level, exposing the database to potential intrusions. If the Pgpool service is accessible externally, attackers can leverage this vulnerability to gain unauthorized access, compromising the integrity and confidentiality of the database.
