CVE-2013-1901
PostgreSQL 9.2.x before 9.2.4 and 9.1.x before 9.1.9 does not properly check REPLICATION privileges, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended backup restrictions by calling the (1) pg_start_backup or (2) pg_stop_backup functions.

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.30%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
