There is (for what I know) no PostgreSQL database server installation, but 
there IS a PostgreSQL-client(!) lib included.
Not sure if we are talking about the same thing here?

CVE-2025-4207 says it affects libpq, which I think is part of the client?

According to the osgeo4w packager we are on 18.4 since (from 17.3)... 
yesterday...
https://github.com/jef-n/OSGeo4W/blob/998472c3de1c3b51615033638c1910c5e5e28173/src/libpq/osgeo4w/package.sh

Not exactly sure when this will be part of new installers.

Dear Dror,

Thank you for the clarification regarding the bundled installations.

Based on your recommendation to use the Long Term Release (LTR) version for 
organizational settings, we will look into the current LTR 3.44. We will also 
monitor the upcoming release of QGIS 4.2.4 in October.

Since QGIS does not come with a prebundled PostgreSQL installation, we will 
investigate our internal deployment process to identify how PostgreSQL 17.0.3 
was included and proceed with the necessary upgrades independently.

Thanks
Harish

    Hi Harish,

    Neither the standalone nor the OSGeo4W installations of QGIS come with a 
prebundled PostgreSQL installation.
    Since it sounds like you installed QGIS in an organization, it is mostly 
recommended to use the LTR (Long Term Release) version (currently 3.44) in that 
setting, not the newest version.
    The first LTR of QGIS 4.x is planned to release in October, with QGIS 4.2.4.

        Hi There,

        I hope you are well!

        We are currently using QGIS version 4.0.3 and have identified that it 
comes bundled with PostgreSQL version 17.0.3.

        Our security monitoring has flagged multiple high-priority 
vulnerabilities within this version of PostgreSQL (including CVE-2025-4207 and 
others). According to PostgreSQL security recommendations, a secure version 
would be 17.10 or higher.

        Could you please confirm if there is a newer release of QGIS that 
bundles a secure version of PostgreSQL? Additionally, if a bundled update is 
not yet available, please advise on the recommended process for upgrading the 
internal PostgreSQL component to version 17.10 or above without impacting the 
QGIS application's stability.

        Thanks,
        Harish
