What is CVE-2021-3935?

A configuration flaw in PgBouncer permits a man-in-the-middle attacker to inject arbitrary SQL queries during the establishment of a connection when 'cert' authentication is enabled. This occurs despite the implementation of TLS certificate verification and encryption, potentially leading to unauthorized access or manipulation of data. Affected versions include all prior to 1.16.1, highlighting the importance of updating to the latest release to mitigate this risk.
