EDB PgBouncer 1.16.1.0 release notes v1
Released: 11 Dec 2021
EDB PgBouncer 1.16.1.0 includes the following upstream merge and security fix:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Upstream merge | Merged with community PgBouncer 1.16.1.0. See the community Release Notes for details. |
| Security fix | Make PgBouncer acting as a server reject extraneous data after an SSL or GSS encryption handshake. A man-in-the-middle with the ability to inject data into the TCP connection could stuff some cleartext data into the start of a supposedly encryption-protected database session. This could be abused to send faked SQL commands to the server, although that would only work if PgBouncer did not demand any authentication data. However, a PgBouncer setup relying on SSL certificate authentication might well not do so. |
