CVE-2025-12762

pgAdmin versions up to 9.9 are affected by a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability that occurs when running in server mode and performing restores from PLAIN-format dump files. This issue allows attackers to inject and execute arbitrary commands on the server hosting pgAdmin, posing a critical risk to the integrity and security of the database management system and underlying data.

Summary		(es) Las versiones de pgAdmin hasta la 9.9 están afectadas por una vulnerabilidad de ejecución remota de código (RCE) que ocurre al ejecutarse en modo de servidor y al realizar restauraciones desde archivos de volcado en formato PLAIN. Este problema permite a los atacantes inyectar y ejecutar comandos arbitrarios en el servidor que aloja pgAdmin, lo que representa un riesgo crítico para la integridad y seguridad del sistema de gestión de base de datos y los datos subyacentes.
