| Description | psqlODBC sizes its row cache from the column count of a cursor's first result, but recomputes the column count from each later FETCH reply without checking that it matches. A server not trusted under current SSL settings can answer a later FETCH with more columns and make the driver write tuple records past the end of the heap allocation. A keyset reply with fewer columns than the key fields also underflows the unsigned field count. This is reachable with UseDeclareFetch enabled. Versions before psqlODBC 18.00.0006 are affected. |

Additional Advisory Data
Solutions
CNA: Upgrade to psqlODBC 18.00.0006 or later. The driver rejects a column count that changes between fetches of the same cursor, and a keyset reply with fewer columns than the key fields.
Workarounds
CNA: Set UseDeclareFetch=0, or connect only to servers authenticated with sslmode=verify-full or an equivalent GSS setting.
There are currently no legacy QID mappings associated with this CVE.
