DescriptionCVE.org

The address_standardizer extension for PostGIS through 3.7.0, fixed in commit 423570b, contains an out-of-bounds write vulnerability that allows a database user with the ability to supply caller-controlled relation names to standardize_address() to trigger memory corruption by providing a rules table with a classification Type value exceeding the fixed class range. Attackers can craft a malicious rules table entry with an oversized rule type value that is used without bounds checking as an index into an internal output-link table, resulting in an out-of-bounds write.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds write in the PostGIS address_standardizer extension through 3.7.0 allows a low-privileged database user to trigger memory corruption in the PostgreSQL server process by supplying a malicious rules table to the standardize_address() function. Missing bounds validation on the classification Type field in gamma.c permits values outside the valid range to be used as raw array indices into an internal output-link table, writing attacker-influenced data to adjacent memory. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Authenticate as low-privilege database user
Delivery
Create rules table with out-of-range classification Type value
Exploit
Call standardize_address() with attacker-controlled table name as rules argument
Execution
Trigger missing bounds check in gamma.c rules_add_rule() or create_rules()
Persist
Out-of-bounds write corrupts adjacent PostgreSQL backend process memory
Impact
Achieve memory corruption enabling data exfiltration, integrity violation, or process crash

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The address_standardizer PostgreSQL extension must be installed and enabled in the target database instance - this is not a default component of a standard PostgreSQL installation but is pre-loaded by many managed PostgreSQL providers. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N with High confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system) accurately captures the threat: a network-reachable, low-complexity attack requiring only a low-privilege database user account. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A low-privileged PostgreSQL user creates a rules table containing a row with a classification Type value of 5 or higher (or a negative value), both of which exceed the MAX_CL boundary in the address_standardizer code. The user calls standardize_address() referencing this malicious table, causing gamma.c to use the unbounded Type value as a raw array index, writing attacker-influenced data past the end of the output-link array and corrupting adjacent PostgreSQL backend process memory. …
Remediation The primary fix is to apply upstream commit 423570b (https://github.com/postgis/address_standardizer/commit/423570b0dbf6cd9f6fc36de28a636e7b6e9aa8aa), which adds bounds validation at both vulnerable call sites in gamma.c. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all PostgreSQL instances and identify systems running PostGIS address_standardizer v3.7.0 or earlier; prioritize managed cloud PostgreSQL deployments and verify database access levels for low-privileged users. …
