Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for pgagent.

CVE-2025-0218[0]:
| When batch jobs are executed by pgAgent, a script is created in a
| temporary directory and then executed. In versions of pgAgent prior
| to 4.2.3, an insufficiently seeded random number generator is used
| when generating the directory name, leading to the possibility for a
| local attacker to pre-create the directory and thus prevent pgAgent
| from executing jobs, disrupting scheduled tasks.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
