Critical Vulnerability in NestJS Devtools: Localhost RCE via Sandbox Escape
A flawed sandbox in @nestjs/devtools-integration lets attackers run code on your machine via CSRF, leading to full Remote Code Execution (RCE).

for details.
pgconnstr.ConnectionString represents a libpq connection string.
>>> from pgconnstr import ConnectionString
>>> c = ConnectionString(host='1.2.3.4', dbname='mydb', port=5432, user='anon',
... password="sec'ret", application_name='myapp')
...
>>> print(str(c))
application_name=myapp dbname=mydb host=1.2.3.4 password=sec\'ret port=5432 user=anon
>>> print(str(ConnectionString(str(c), dbname='otherdb')))
application_name=myapp dbname=otherdb host=1.2.3.4 password=sec\'ret port=5432 user=anon
Components may be accessed as attributes.
>>> c.dbname
'mydb'
>>> c.host
'1.2.3.4'
>>> c.port
'5432'
Standard components will default to None if not explicitly set. See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-PARAMKEYWORDS for the list of standard keywords.
>>> c.connect_timeout is None
True
The standard URI format is also accessible:
>>> print(c.uri)
postgresql://anon:sec%27ret@1.2.3.4:5432/mydb?application_name=myapp
>>> print(ConnectionString(c, host='2001:db8::1234').uri)
postgresql://anon:sec%27ret@[2001:db8::1234]:5432/mydb?application_name=myapp
