This is not a security issue and should be directed to the general pgjdbc
mailing list (cc'ed).

The pgjdbc driver does not ship with any embedded dependencies. The driver
dependencies are part of the the Maven pom and the latest version of the
driver has a checker-qual dependency of 3.31.0:
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/postgresql/postgresql/42.6.0/postgresql-42.6.0.pom

While we periodically update the minimum dependency versions for the
driver's internal dependencies as we leverage new features, there is no
specific schedule for it. In the interim, if you want to use a newer
version of that dependency, you'll need to update your local pom.xml or
gradle config to override the checker-qual dependency.
