GO-2026-6169

Go logogithub.com/lib/pq
>= 1.11.0
Description

(This report has been withdrawn with reason: "Report mistakenly added without having CVE / GHSA associated"). When a connection specifies hostaddr without host, github.com/lib/pq dials the numeric hostaddr but performs .pgpass lookup using the default Config.Host value, localhost. If the passfile contains different credentials for localhost and the remote address, the driver selects the secret intended for the local database and sends it to the remote endpoint when that endpoint requests password authentication.
