CVE-2026-125323

pgEdge Control Plane is a distributed application for managing and orchestrating Postgres databases across multiple hosts. From 0.1.0 to 0.10.1, generated pg_hba.conf files began with hard-coded trust entries for Unix-socket and loopback connections. Because PostgreSQL evaluates the file from top to bottom, those entries also preempted operator-supplied rules in the pg_hba_conf field. Under the systemd orchestrator, any unprivileged operating-system account on a database host could authenticate as any PostgreSQL role, including the superuser, without credentials and obtain full control of the host's databases. Under Docker Swarm, reaching the container-local socket or loopback interface required code execution inside the database container. Publishing the PostgreSQL port to the host did not expose these trust rules because host connections did not appear to originate from 127.0.0.1 or ::1. This issue is fixed in version 0.11.0.

Affected products and versions

NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.

Remediation & validation

  1. Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
  2. Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
  3. Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
  4. Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.

No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
