waiting for further signalsZero needs more public information before it can validate it.GHSA-3cj4-r426-m55g ↗EUVD-2026-124509 ↗
description
PostgreSQL versions earlier than 18.7, 17.12, 16.16, 15.20, or 14.25 can process untrusted content in pg_dump tar-format restore data unsafely. An attacker controlling the source server or supplied backup may run code as the operating-system user executing psql when that data is restored.
mitigation
Upgrade PostgreSQL to 18.7, 17.12, 16.16, 15.20, or 14.25, as appropriate for your release branch. Until upgraded, do not restore tar-format dumps from untrusted or potentially compromised sources.
fixed in 18.7, 17.12, 16.16, 15.20, 14.25
outcome
Contextual, not validated: no deterministic check could cover this one, and no technique passed our review.
