The error comes from the libpq failing to parse messages from the server
(at a glance CommandComplete and RowDescription - see
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/protocol-message-formats.html)
which are probably just the most common ones.

I doubt it's a bug with libpq 12.2 or whatever server is on the other side
of the wire: we would have seen this error more often. If you want to
investigate in that direction you may ask core devs if there have been
changes in that area for those versions.

My wild guess is either faulty network or faulty memory on the machine,
most likely the latter.
