AI-suggested

Upgrade to PostgreSQL Anonymizer version 3.1.0 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. For PostgreSQL 15 and later, the default revocation of CREATE TABLE permission on the public schema reduces risk, but users should ensure that only trusted users have CREATE TABLE privileges. Patch status is not explicitly stated beyond the fixed version; therefore, verify with the vendor advisory for the latest remediation guidance.

Description

CVE-2026-9617 is a SQL injection vulnerability in the DALIBO PostgreSQL Anonymizer that allows a user to escalate privileges to superuser by injecting malicious code into a column identifier when creating a table. Execution of this code occurs if a superuser calls the k-anonymity function. The risk is higher on PostgreSQL 14 or instances upgraded from that version, while PostgreSQL 15 and later reduce risk by revoking public schema creation permissions by default. The vulnerability is fixed in PostgreSQL Anonymizer version 3.1.0 and later.
