CVE-2026-17566 is a command injection vulnerability in pgAdmin 4's Import/Export Data feature. The vulnerable path is create_import_export_job(), exposed through POST /import_export/job/<sid>, where pgAdmin constructed a psql \copy (...) command by interpolating a user-supplied SQL query into a Jinja template and passing the rendered command to psql via --command. To prevent breakout from the intended parenthesized subquery, pgAdmin relied on a custom validator, _is_query_parens_balanced(), but that checker incorrectly assumed that a backslash before a single quote always escapes the quote. On supported PostgreSQL versions, where standard_conforming_strings defaults to on, psql treats backslash as an ordinary character in this context, so the quote can terminate the string literal earlier than pgAdmin expects. This parser mismatch allows an attacker to terminate the wrapped subquery and inject a TO PROGRAM clause into the generated \copy command, leading to execution of attacker-controlled commands via psql.
