Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:
- Untrusted data inclusion in PostgreSQL psql COPY may allow a server administrator to elicit execution of
data lines as psql commands, via error injection. If the "COPY FROM STDIN" or "\copy FROM STDIN" command
fails before the server indicates that it awaits input rows, psql processes the in-line data rows as psql
commands. "COPY FROM" with a filename is unaffected. The server administrator has no inherent control over
the data rows, so a complete attack requires the attacker to separately acquire control of both the server
and the data rows. Alternatively, an attacker controlling data rows alone might complete an attack through
a coincidental error that they don't control. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19, and
14.24 are affected. (CVE-2026-6464)
Solution
Update the ecpg-17 library and its related packages to version 17.11-r0 or later.
