Description :Authorization vulnerability in pgAdmin 4 server mode affecting Server Groups, Servers, Shared Servers, Background Processes, and Debugger modules.<\/p>\n
Multiple endpoints fetched user-owned objects without filtering by the requesting user’s identity. An authenticated user could access another user’s private servers, server groups, background processes, and debugger function arguments by guessing object IDs.<\/p>\n
Additionally, the Shared Servers feature contained multiple issues including credential leakage (passexec_cmd, passfile, SSL keys), privilege escalation via writable passexec_cmd (a shell command executed when establishing the connection) allowing arbitrary command execution in the owner’s process context, and owner-data corruption via SQLAlchemy session mutations. Several owner-only fields (passexec_cmd, passexec_expiration, db_res, db_res_type) were writable by non-owners through the API, and additional fields (kerberos_conn, tags, post_connection_sql) lacked per-user persistence so non-owner edits mutated the owner’s record.<\/p>\n
Fix centralises access control via a new server_access module, scopes all user-owned models with a UserScopedMixin, returns HTTP 410 from connection_manager when access is denied in server mode, suppresses owner-only fields for non-owners across the merge \/ API response \/ ServerManager paths, and adds an explicit owner-only write guard. The remediation landed in two pull requests; both are referenced.<\/p>\n
This issue affects pgAdmin 4: before 9.15.<\/p>\n
Severity: 9.9 | CRITICAL<\/p>\n
