CVE-2026-6479 PostgreSQL SSL/GSS init causes denial of service, via uncontrolled recursion

Uncontrolled recursion in PostgreSQL SSL and GSS negotiation allows an attacker able to connect to a PostgreSQL AFUNIX socket to achieve sustained denial of service. If SSL and GSS are both disabled, an attacker can do the same via access to a PostgreSQL TCP socket. Versions before PostgreSQL 18....

CVE-2026-6479

CVE-2026-6479 affects PostgreSQL: uncontrolled recursion during SSL/GSS negotiation can cause sustained denial of service. Affected are versions older than 18.4, 17.10, 16.14, 15.18, and 14.23. An attacker connected to a PostgreSQL AF_UNIX socket can trigger the issue; if SSL and GSS are both dis...

CVE-2026-6478

Covert timing channel in comparison of MD5-hashed password in PostgreSQL authentication allows an attacker to recover user credentials sufficient to authenticate. This does not affect scram-sha-256 passwords, the default in all supported releases. However, current databases may have MD5-hashed...

CVE-2026-6477

The CVE describes a vulnerability in PostgreSQL libpq where PQfn(..., result_is_int=0, ...) can cause an arbitrary, server-supplied data payload to be written into a client stack memory buffer by the server superuser. Affected components include libpq functions lo_export(), lo_read(), lo_lseek64(...

CVE-2026-6475

Summary (CVE-2026-6475) : PostgreSQL suffers a symlink-following issue in the pg_basebackup plain format and in pg_rewind. An origin superuser can overwrite local files (for example, /var/lib/postgres/.bashrc), which could later be trusted when the server starts due to features like shared_preloa...

CVE-2026-6475 PostgreSQL pg_basebackup and pg_rewind can overwrite unrelated files of origin superuser choice

Symlink following in PostgreSQL pgbasebackup plain format and in pgrewind allows an origin superuser to overwrite local files, e.g. /var/lib/postgres/.bashrc, that hijack the operating system account. It will remain the case that starting the server after these commands implicitly trusts the orig...
