CVE-2025-60797: phppgadmin contains a SQL injection vulnerability

November 20, 2025 (updated November 21, 2025)

phpPgAdmin 7.13.0 and earlier contains a SQL injection vulnerability in dataexport.php at line 118. The application directly executes user-supplied SQL queries from the $_REQUEST[‘query’] parameter without any sanitization or parameterization via $data->conn->Execute($_REQUEST[‘query’]). An authenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary SQL commands, potentially leading to complete database compromise, data theft, or privilege escalation.
