A PoC for CVE-2026-17543, a critical SQL injection in PHP's ext-pgsql: pg_* functions wrap escaped values as E'...' literals, so a backslash breaks out; the lab reads rows and sets an admin flag.
Why it matters: The flaw breaks application trust in ext-pgsql conversion helpers, allowing unauthenticated remote input to become data disclosure or application-level privilege manipulation. Upgrade to the fixed PHP release for the active branch and prefer true parameterized queries.
