Summary

An OS command injection weakness in the read-only enforcement of the SQL validation component in Amazon awslabs postgres-mcp-server before 1.1.7 might allow an unauthenticated actor to execute operating system commands on the host of a self-managed PostgreSQL server by placing a crafted COPY ... TO PROGRAM statement into content that is processed when an authenticated user interacts with the MCP server in its default read-only mode.

To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 1.1.7 or later.
