✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://images.redhat.com/ Workaround: Avoid using the non-default simple protocol in applications that use the pgx PostgreSQL driver for Go. The vulnerability is contingent on this non-default protocol and specific SQL query constructs. Configuring applications to use the default extended protocol prevents this issue. If the simple protocol is necessary, ensure that dollar-quoted string literals do not contain attacker-controlled placeholder values. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability. Workaround: There is no effective workaround. Setting max_request_body_size reduces but does not eliminate exposure due to the ~1000:1 compression ratio (a 1MB body limit still allows ~1GB heap allocation). Setting max_apk_metadata_size has no effect on this vulnerability since the check is applied after decompression. Upgrade to Rekor 1.5.2 or later.
