✅ 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: 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.
