PostgreSQL CVEs from February 2026 release — pgcrypto heap overflow, intarray code exec, pg_trgm privilege escalation

cve HIGH
PostgreSQL 18.3, 17.9, 16.13, 15.17, and 14.22 were released on 2026-02-26 patching four critical CVEs: CVE-2026-2005 (pgcrypto heap buffer overflow → arbitrary code exec), CVE-2026-2004 (intarray selectivity estimator missing type validation → arbitrary code exec), CVE-2026-2003 (oidvector memory disclosure), CVE-2026-2007 (pg_trgm heap buffer overflow → privilege escalation). ODS runs PostgreSQL 17 — the patched version is 17.9. Current production is likely still on 17.7 or earlier if not upgraded after the February release.

ODS Impact

Critical. All ODS services store data in PostgreSQL 17 (oid, docstore, pdf-engine, workflow-engine, billing-engine, etc.). CVE-2026-2005 and CVE-2026-2004 allow arbitrary code execution at OS level if an attacker has DB access. Immediately verify PostgreSQL version on srv-staging (ods-postgres container) and upgrade to 17.9. Check if pgcrypto, intarray, or pg_trgm extensions are enabled.
