Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

A vulnerability in the FinanceChatLlamaPack of the llama-index-packs-finchat package, versions up to v0.3.0, allows for SQL injection in the runsqlquery function of the databaseagent. This vulnerability can be exploited by an attacker to inject arbitrary SQL queries, leading to remote code execution (RCE) through the use of PostgreSQL's large object functionality. The issue is resolved by no longer officially supporting the package and moving it into the stalepackages branch on the repo, this removing it from documentation etc.

## Affected components
- PyPI llama-index-packs-finchat: affected <= 0.3.0

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `python -m pip show llama-index-packs-finchat`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on llama-index-packs-finchat.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
