CVE-2026-107350: PgBouncer authentication bypass in SCRAM

CVE-2026-107350 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.8 · Published 2026-10-14

PgBouncer is a connection pooler that sits between applications and PostgreSQL databases, managing connections and authentication. Versions 1.17.0 through 1.26.0 contain an authentication bypass that allows an attacker who knows any user's password to impersonate any other SCRAM-authenticated user, including administrators and database superusers. This could lead to unauthorized database access, data theft, or malicious modifications by an attacker with a single valid password.

Technical details

The vulnerability exists in PgBouncer's SCRAM authentication handler, which incorrectly accepts a second StartupMessage during SCRAM authentication when connecting to a non-existent database. An attacker can send an initial authentication message for a known user, then send a second StartupMessage to switch the target user before the SCRAM exchange completes; the SCRAM verification is still performed against the first user's keys, allowing authentication as a different user. This requires both the original and target users to authenticate via SCRAM.
