SQL Injection

org.postgresql:postgresql is a Java JDBC 4.2 (JRE 8+) driver for PostgreSQL database.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to SQL Injection when using PreferQueryMode=SIMPLE, which is not the default setting. By passing in a numeric value placeholder immediately preceded by a minus and followed by a second placeholder for a string value, on the same line, an attacker can construct a payload that alters the parameterized query into which it is interpolated. This effectively bypasses the protections against SQL Injection that parameterized queries offer.

How to fix SQL Injection?

Upgrade org.postgresql:postgresql to version 42.2.28.jre7, 42.3.9, 42.4.4, 42.5.5, 42.6.1, 42.7.2 or higher.

Information Exposure

org.postgresql:postgresql is a Java JDBC 4.2 (JRE 8+) driver for PostgreSQL database.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure in the pgjdbc driver, which writes to the operating system's shared temp directory when the InputStream to either PreparedStatement.setText(int, InputStream) or PreparedStatemet.setBytea(int, InputStream) is larger than 2K. The temporary file is readable by other users. This is the default system behavior on Unix systems but not on MacOS.

NOTE: This vulnerability is only fixed for JDK 1.7. Systems using JDK 1.6 or below can work around the vulnerability by setting the environment variable java.io.tmpdir to a non-world-readable location.

How to fix Information Exposure?

Upgrade org.postgresql:postgresql to version 42.2.27, 42.3.8, 42.4.3, 42.5.1 or higher.
