Wiz Research discovers "ExtraReplica"- a cross-account database vulnerability in Azure PostgreSQL

Wiz Research identified a chain of critical vulnerabilities in Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server that could allow cross-account database access. The vulnerability, termed ExtraReplica, demonstrates a significant security gap in how Azure manages database replicas across customer accounts. Organizations using this managed database service are potentially exposed to unauthorized data access from other Azure accounts.

Why it matters: Teams managing Azure PostgreSQL deployments need to assess their exposure immediately and check for vendor patches or workarounds, as this vulnerability enables attackers to access databases across different Azure accounts.
