I've noticed a steady trickle of reports of postgresql servers being 
compromised via being left available to the internet with insecure or default 
configuration, or brute-forced credentials. The symptoms are randomly named 
binaries being uploaded to the data directory and executed with the permissions 
of the postgresql user, apparently via an extension or an untrusted PL.

Is anyone tracking or investigating this?

Cheers,
  Steve
