Specifically, this blocks DECLARE ... WITH HOLD and firing of deferred triggers within index expressions and materialized view queries. An attacker having permission to create non-temp objects in at least one schema could execute arbitrary SQL functions under the identity of the bootstrap superuser. One can work around the vulnerability by disabling autovacuum and not manually running ANALYZE, CLUSTER, REINDEX, CREATE INDEX, VACUUM FULL, or REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW. (Don't restore from pg_dump, since it runs some of those commands.) Plain VACUUM (without FULL) is safe, and all commands are fine when a trusted user owns the target object. Performance may degrade quickly under this workaround, however. Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions). Reviewed by Robert Haas. Reported by Etienne Stalmans. Security: CVE-2020-25695

Coverity complained about a defect in commit 257836a7: Calling "parsePGArray" without checking return value (as is done elsewhere 11 out of 13 times). Fix, and also check for empty strings explicitly (NULL as represented by PQgetvalue()). That worked correctly before only because parsePGArray() happens to set *nitems = 0 when it fails on an empty string. Also convert a sanity check assertion to an error to be more paranoid, and pgindent a nearby line. Reported-by: Michael Paquier <michael@paquier.xyz>

This back-patches commit 20d3fe90 into the v12 and v13 branches. At the time I thought that commit was not fixing any observable bug, but Bertrand Drouvot showed otherwise: adding a dropped column to the previously-considered scenario crashes v12 and v13, unless the dropped column happens to be an integer. That is, of course, because the tupdesc we derive from the plan output tlist fails to describe the dropped column accurately, so that we'll do the wrong thing with a tuple in which that column isn't NULL. There is no bug in pre-v12 branches because they already did use the table's real tuple descriptor for any trigger-returned tuple. It seems that this set of bugs can be blamed on the changes that removed es_trig_tuple_slot, though I've not attempted to pin that down precisely. Although there's no code change needed in HEAD, update the test case to include a dropped column there too.

The description of how LP_DEAD bit setting by index scans works following commit 2ed5b87f was rather unclear. Clean that up a bit. Also refer to LP_DEAD bit setting within _bt_check_unique() at the start of the same section. This mechanism may actually be more important than the generic kill_prior_tuple mechanism that the section focuses on, so it at least deserves to be mentioned in passing.

The buildfarm thinks this leads to memory stomps, though annoyingly I can't duplicate that here. The existing code in strings.pgc is doing something that doesn't seem to be sanctioned at all really by the documentation, but I'm disinclined to try to make that nicer right now.

These were broken in multiple ways: * The xbstart and xhstart lexer actions neglected to set "state_before_str_start" before transitioning to the xb/xh states, thus possibly resulting in "internal error: unreachable state" later. * The test for valid string contents at the end of xb state was flat out wrong, as it accounted incorrectly for the "b" prefix that the xbstart action had injected. Meanwhile, the xh state had no such check at all. * The generated literal value failed to include any quote marks. * The grammar did the wrong thing anyway, typically ignoring the literal value and emitting something else, since BCONST and XCONST tokens were handled randomly differently from SCONST tokens. The first of these problems is evidently an oversight in commit 7f380c59, but the others seem to be very ancient. The lack of complaints shows that ECPG users aren't using these syntaxes much (although I do vaguely remember one previous complaint). As written, this patch is dependent on 7f380c59, so it can't go back further than v13. Given the shortage of complaints, I'm not excited about adapting the patch to prior branches.

This should have been done in the initial commit that made unix_socket_directories a list as of c9b0cbe9. This change allows to support correctly the case of ALTER SYSTEM, where it is possible to specify multiple paths as a list, like the following pattern where flattening is applied to each item: ALTER SYSTEM SET unix_socket_directories = '/path1', '/path2'; Any parameters specified in postgresql.conf are parsed the same way, so there is no compatibility change. pg_dump has a hardcoded list of parameters marked with GUC_LIST_QUOTE, that gets its routine update.

brin_form_tuple failed to consider the values may be toasted, inserting the toast pointer into the index. This may easily result in index corruption, as the toast data may be deleted and cleaned up by vacuum. The cleanup however does not care about indexes, leaving invalid toast pointers behind, which triggers errors like this: ERROR: missing chunk number 0 for toast value 16433 in pg_toast_16426 A less severe consequence are inconsistent failures due to the index row being too large, depending on whether brin_form_tuple operated on plain or toasted version of the row. For example CREATE TABLE t (val TEXT); INSERT INTO t VALUES ('... long value ...') CREATE INDEX idx ON t USING brin (val); would likely succeed, as the row would likely include toast pointer. Switching the order of INSERT and CREATE INDEX would likely fail: ERROR: index row size 8712 exceeds maximum 8152 for index "idx" because this happens before the row values are toasted. The bug exists since PostgreSQL 9.5 where BRIN indexes were introduced. So backpatch all the way back.

Currently only OpenSSL requires this initialization, but in the future other SSL implementations are likely to need it as well. Abstracting this functionality out into a separate function makes this cleaner and more clear, and also removes the dependency on OpenSSL headers from fork_process.c. OpenSSL is special in that we need to initialize this random number generator even if we're not going to use it directly, until we drop support for everything prior to OpenSSL 1.1.1. (And of course also if we actually use it). All other implementations are left empty at this time, but more are expected to be added in the future.

wal_consistency_checking indicated an inconsistency in certain cases involving nbtree page deletion. The underlying issue is that there was a minor difference between the page image produced after a REDO routine ran and the corresponding page image following original execution. This harmless inconsistency has been around forever. We more or less expect total consistency among even deleted nbtree pages these days, though, so this won't do anymore. To fix, tweak the REDO routine to match original execution. Oversight in commit f47b5e13.

LOCK TABLE has complained about "infinite recursion" when applied to a self-referential view, ever since we made it recurse into views in v11. However, that breaks pg_dump's new assumption that it's okay to lock every relation. There doesn't seem to be any good reason to throw an error: if we just abandon the recursion, we've still satisfied the requirement of locking every referenced relation.

Logic for counting heap TIDs from posting list tuples (added by commit 0d861bbb) was faulty. It didn't count any TIDs/index tuples in the event of no callback being set. This meant that we incorrectly counted no index tuples in clean-up only VACUUMs, which could lead to pg_class.reltuples being spuriously set to 0 in affected indexes. To fix, go back to counting items from the page in cases where there is no callback. This approach isn't very accurate, but it works well enough in practice while avoiding the expense of accessing every index tuple during cleanup-only VACUUMs. Author: Peter Geoghegan <pg@bowt.ie> Reported-By: Jehan-Guillaume de Rorthais <jgdr@dalibo.com> https://postgr.es/m/20201023174451.69e358f1@firost Backpatch: 13-, where nbtree deduplication was introduced

float4_div and float8_div correctly produced zero for zero divided by infinity, but threw an underflow error for nonzero finite values divided by infinity. This seems wrong; at the very least it's inconsistent with the behavior recently implemented for numeric infinities. Remove the error and allow zero to be returned. This patch also removes a useless isinf() test from the overflow checks in these functions (non-Inf divided by Inf can't produce Inf). Extracted from a larger patch; this seems significant outside the context of geometric operators, so it deserves its own commit.

This allows use of a "default" expression that doesn't slavishly match the data column's type. Formerly you got something like "function lag(numeric, integer, integer) does not exist", which is not just unhelpful but actively misleading. The SQL spec suggests that the default should be coerced to the data column's type, but this implementation instead chooses the common supertype, which seems at least as reasonable. (Note: I took the opportunity to run "make reformat-dat-files" on pg_proc.dat, so this commit includes some cosmetic changes to recently-added entries that aren't related to lead/lag.)

The SQL spec calls out nonstandard syntax for certain function calls, for example substring() with numeric position info is supposed to be spelled "SUBSTRING(string FROM start FOR count)". We accept many of these things, but up to now would not print them in the same format, instead simplifying down to "substring"(string, start, count). That's long annoyed me because it creates an interoperability problem: we're gratuitously injecting Postgres-specific syntax into what might otherwise be a perfectly spec-compliant view definition. However, the real reason for addressing it right now is to support a planned change in the semantics of EXTRACT() a/k/a date_part(). When we switch that to returning numeric, we'll have the parser translate EXTRACT() to some new function name (might as well be "extract" if you ask me) and then teach ruleutils.c to reverse-list that per SQL spec. In this way existing calls to date_part() will continue to have the old semantics. To implement this, invent a new CoercionForm value COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX, and make the parser insert that rather than COERCE_EXPLICIT_CALL when the input has SQL-spec decoration. (But if the input has the form of a plain function call, continue to mark it COERCE_EXPLICIT_CALL, even if it's calling one of these functions.) Then ruleutils.c recognizes COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX as a cue to emit SQL call syntax. It can know which decoration to emit using hard-wired knowledge about the functions that could be called this way. (While this solution isn't extensible without manual additions, neither is the grammar, so this doesn't seem unmaintainable.) Notice that this solution will reverse-list a function call with SQL decoration only if it was entered that way; so dump-and-reload will not by itself produce any changes in the appearance of views. This requires adding a CoercionForm field to struct FuncCall. (I couldn't resist the temptation to rearrange that struct's field order a tad while I was at it.) FuncCall doesn't appear in stored rules, so that change isn't a reason for a catversion bump, but I did one anyway because the new enum value for CoercionForm fields could confuse old backend code. Possible future work: * Perhaps CoercionForm should now be renamed to DisplayForm, or something like that, to reflect its more general meaning. This'd require touching a couple hundred places, so it's not clear it's worth the code churn. * The SQLValueFunction node type, which was invented partly for the same goal of improving SQL-compatibility of view output, could perhaps be replaced with regular function calls marked with COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX. It's unclear if this would be a net code savings, however. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/42b73d2d-da12-ba9f-570a-420e0cce19d9@phystech.edu

Gen_fmgrtab.pl treated aggregate functions the same as other built-in functions, which is wasteful because there is no real need to have entries for them in the fmgr_builtins[] table. Suppressing those entries saves about 3KB in the compiled table on my machine; which is not a lot but it's not nothing either, considering that that table is pretty "hot". The only outside code change needed is that ExecInitWindowAgg() can't be allowed to call fmgr_info_cxt() on a plain aggregate function. But that saves a few cycles anyway. Having done that, the aggregate_dummy() function is unreferenced and might as well be dropped. Using "aggregate_dummy" as the prosrc value for an aggregate is now just a documentation convention not something that matters. There was some discussion of using NULL instead to save a few bytes in pg_proc, but we'd have to remove prosrc's BKI_FORCE_NOT_NULL marking which doesn't seem a great idea. Anyway, it's possible there's client-side code that expects to see "aggregate_dummy" there, so I'm loath to change it without a strong reason.

Commit ac22929a changed recoveryWakeupLatch so that it's reset to NULL at the end of recovery. This change could cause a segmentation fault in the buildfarm member 'elver'. Previously the latch was reset to NULL after calling ShutdownWalRcv(). But there could be a window between ShutdownWalRcv() and the actual exit of walreceiver. If walreceiver set the latch during that window, the segmentation fault could happen.

This makes the abstraction of a "source" server more clear, by introducing a common abstract class, borrowing the object-oriented programming term, that represents all the operations that can be done on the source server. There are two implementations of it, one for fetching via libpq, and another to fetch from a local directory. This adds some code, but makes it easier to understand what's going on.
