CVE-2026-90775PostGIS address_standardizer through 3.7.0 Out-of-Bounds Read via Unvalidated Rule Weight
Medium 6.5
In plain English
A medium-severity out-of-bounds read in address_standardizer from PostGIS. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.6% (higher than 50% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
PostGIS address_standardizer through 3.7.0 fails to validate the Weight parameter from caller-supplied rules tables before using it as an array index. Attackers can craft malicious rule rows with out-of-range Weight values to trigger out-of-bounds reads in the load_value array, causing the PostgreSQL backend process to crash and terminate all cluster sessions.
