DescriptionNVD

Stack buffer overflow in PostgreSQL module "refint" allows an unprivileged database user to execute arbitrary code as the operating system user running the database. A distinct attack is possible if the application declares a user-controlled column as a "refint" cascade primary key and facilitates user-controlled updates to that column. In that case, a SQL injection allows a primary key update value provider to execute arbitrary SQL as the database user performing the primary key update. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.4, 17.10, 16.14, 15.18, and 14.23 are affected.

AnalysisAI

Stack buffer overflow in PostgreSQL's refint module allows low-privileged database users to execute arbitrary code as the database operating system user across all supported versions before 14.23, 15.18, 16.14, 17.10, and 18.4. The vulnerability enables two distinct attack paths: direct stack overflow leading to OS-level code execution, and SQL injection when applications expose user-controlled columns configured as refint cascade primary keys. …
