But we've issued several CVEs since 9.5 went out of support --- notably, I'd say CVE-2022-1552 from the previous minor-release cycle is a good deal more dangerous than this one. So, again, why worry about -2625 in particular? I'm still wondering whether the OP's installation is even on 9.5.latest; if not, they've likely got even more serious things to worry about. A quick troll through the 9.5.x release notes finds a lot of bugs... regards, tom lane
