- CVE-2026-41889 è una vulnerabilità CRITICO (CVSS 9.8) che riguarda github.com/jackc/pgx, github.com/jackc/pgx/v4, github.com/jackc/pgx/v5.
- Probabilità di sfruttamento nei prossimi 30 giorni (EPSS): 0.36%, superiore al 29.3% delle vulnerabilità.
- Correzione: aggiornare a 5.9.2 o successiva.
Description
Impact
SQL Injection can occur when:
- The non-default simple protocol is used.
- A dollar quoted string literal is used in the SQL query.
- That string literal contains text that would be would be interpreted as a placeholder outside of a string literal.
- The value of that placeholder is controllable by the attacker.
e.g.
attackValue := `$tag$; drop table canary; --`
_, err = tx.Exec(ctx, `select $tag$ $1 $tag$, $1`, pgx.QueryExecModeSimpleProtocol, attackValue)
This is unlikely to occur outside of a contrived scenario.
Patches
The problem is resolved in v5.9.2.
Workarounds
Do not use the simple protocol to execute queries matching all the above conditions.
