CVE-2026-19888

CVE-2026-19888 · NULL pointer dereference in SCRAM client-final-message parsing in PgBouncer

This page contains facts from public vulnerability sources. Check the original advisory before updating.

Missing validation of a mandatory attribute in the SCRAM client-final-message parser in PgBouncer through 1.25.2 allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to crash the process. A malformed message can make the parser report success while leaving a required value unset, which is then dereferenced as a NULL pointer. The crash occurs before any credential is verified, so no valid account is required. Because PgBouncer serves all clients from a single process, this terminates every pooled connection.
