Summary

SQL injection in PostgreSQL EXTRACT() deparse allows an object owner to execute arbitrary SQL as a superuser via a hostile object definition. Attacks affect expression deparse consumers broadly, including pg_dump, psql commands like \sf, and any similar usage in non-core tools. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19, and 14.24 are affected.

Risk Assessment

An object owner could gain superuser privileges and execute arbitrary SQL queries, potentially leading to full database compromise and data confidentiality breach.

Recommendation

It is recommended to upgrade PostgreSQL to version 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19, or 14.24 or later to prevent SQL injection.
