If an interactive psql session used \gset when querying a compromised server, the attacker could execute arbitrary code as the operating system account running psql. Using a prefix not found among specially treated variables, e.g. every lowercase string, precluded the attack. Fix by issuing a warning and setting no variable for the column in question. Users wanting the old behavior can use a prefix and then a meta-command like "\set HISTSIZE :prefix_HISTSIZE". Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions). Reviewed by Robert Haas. Reported by Nick Cleaton. Security: CVE-2020-25696 |
