Channel-binding downgrade in the pgjdbc PostgreSQL JDBC Driver (releases 42.7.4 through 42.7.11) lets an active man-in-the-middle silently strip SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS channel binding down to plain SCRAM-SHA-256 even when the client explicitly set channelBinding=require, defeating the exact protection that setting promises. The flaw stems from the bundled com.ongres.scram:scram-client returning an empty binding for certificates whose signature algorithm lacks a tls-server-end-point hash, combined with pgJDBC's ScramAuthenticator failing to reject that empty binding. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV; it is fixed in 42.7.12.
