CVE-2026-121925 Details
Description
A stack-based buffer overflow in libsnowflakeclient and the Snowflake PHP PDO Driver could, under specific conditions, result in memory corruption during SAML-based authentication. During a native SSO/SAML login flow, the affected drivers may have copied a value taken from the identity provider's HTML response into a fixed-size memory buffer without first validating the length of that value. An attacker who controlled or had compromised the configured identity provider — or who was able to redirect the SAML single sign-on endpoint to an attacker-controlled server — might have leveraged this by returning an oversized response, potentially resulting in a crash or, in specific circumstances, remote code execution within the context of the application running the library. The fix is available in libsnowflakeclient version 2.11.1 and Snowflake PHP PDO Driver version 4.3.0. Users must manually upgrade.
A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability has been identified in libsnowflakeclient and the Snowflake PHP PDO Driver. This issue could lead to memory corruption during SAML-based authentication under certain conditions. The vulnerability arises because the affected drivers may copy a value from the identity provider's HTML response into a fixed-size memory buffer without validating the length of the value first. An attacker who controls or has compromised the identity provider, or who can redirect the SAML endpoint to an attacker-controlled server, might exploit this by sending an oversized response. This could potentially cause a crash or, in some cases, allow remote code execution within the context of the application using the library.
Users are advised to upgrade to libsnowflakeclient version 2.11.1 and Snowflake PHP PDO Driver version 4.3.0.
