CVE-2026-14664
Heap buffer overflow in PostgreSQL regexp allows the query author to execute arbitrary code as the operating system user running the database, via text that would not pass encoding validation. This shares heritage with CVE-2026-2006, but this case involved unanticipated data growth when round-tripped through pg_wchar. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19, and 14.24 are affected.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 8.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.44%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 36
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1210Exploitation of Remote Serviceslateral movement85 % - Impacto principal
T1059Command and Scripting Interpreterexecution90 % - Impacto secundario
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation75 %
Vector CVSS AV:N, PR:L sin UI indica explotación de servicio remoto con privilegios existentes (T1210). El desbordamiento de búfer en regexp permite ejecución arbitraria de código como el usuario del sistema ejecutando la BD (T1059, T1068).
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
