Doc Text:
A flaw was found in AWS SDK for pandas (awswrangler). An authenticated remote user with permissions to modify AWS Glue Data Catalog metadata can supply a crafted column name to exploit improper quoting syntax neutralization when SQL identifiers are constructed in the Apache Iceberg write component. This vulnerability allows the attacker to read tables accessible to a more privileged user and modify tables being updated by that user.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-02 17:25:30 UTC
Improper neutralization of quoting syntax in SQL identifier construction in the Apache Iceberg write component in AWS SDK for pandas (also published as awswrangler) 3.5.2 through 3.17.0 might allow an authenticated remote user with permission to modify AWS Glue Data Catalog metadata to read any table that a separate, more privileged principal can access and write to the table that principal is updating via a crafted column name.



To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 3.17.1 or later.
