CVE-2026-11115 is a use-after-free vulnerability in the Google Chrome Updater component on Windows affecting versions prior to 149.0.7827.53. The flaw can be triggered by a local attacker through a malicious file, leading to memory corruption in the updater process. Because the vulnerable component operates in a privileged OS context, successful exploitation can result in elevation of privilege from a local context to higher operating system privileges.

This repository is a minimal proof-of-concept for CVE-2026-11115, demonstrating database connection string injection in a Python application using psycopg2. The repository contains three files: an MIT LICENSE, a README describing the issue and how to run the demo, and a single Python script, db_connector.py, which is the exploit entry point. The script defines a connect() function that reads the DB_URL environment variable and passes it directly to psycopg2.connect() without validation. It then simulates attacker control by setting DB_URL to a crafted PostgreSQL URI containing '?host=evilhost.com&sslmode=disable', causing the connection to be redirected away from the intended localhost database. The main exploit capability is outbound connection redirection via untrusted environment-controlled connection strings, which can enable attacker-controlled database connections, data exfiltration, interception, or auth/transport weakening. This is not a framework module and not merely a detection script; it is a simple standalone PoC with no advanced payload beyond demonstrating host override behavior.
