QID 995372: Python (Pip) Security Update for pgadmin4 (GHSA-ghp8-52vx-77j4)

A flaw was found in pgAdmin. This issue occurs when the pgAdmin server HTTP API validates the path a user selects to external PostgreSQL utilities such as pg_dump and pg_restore. Versions of pgAdmin prior to 7.7 failed to properly control the server code executed on this API, allowing an authenticated user to run arbitrary commands on the server.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to a security breach or could affect integrity, availability, and confidentiality.
