Summary

psqlODBC, the PostgreSQL ODBC driver, is affected. An attacker who can supply table or schema names to the driver's SQLSpecialColumns function can inject SQL commands that run with the privileges of the database connection, potentially allowing unauthorized reading, modification, or deletion of data.

Read the original description

SQLSpecialColumns in psqlODBC splices the table and schema names it receives into its catalog query without escaping them, while the other catalog functions escape them. An application that passes an untrusted table or schema name to SQLSpecialColumns lets the caller execute arbitrary SQL with the privileges of the connection. Versions before psqlODBC 18.00.0006 are affected.

What to do

  • Upgrade to a fixed version: 18.00.0006.
