OTOH, I checked a few, and they are not about PostgreSQL per-se,
but projects using PostgreSQL or extensions to PostgreSQL.
Thus I assume the same happens for MySQL.
Of course, I didn't check that many, just a small sample.
Also, there seems to be a low signal-to-noise ratio on CVEs.
See what [Richard Hipp of SQLite fame says about CVEs][3].
This (low quality of CVEs) comes up often on the SQLite Forum. FWIW.
Still, your input is insightful, qualitatively. Thanks, --DD
