* amcheck: Fix ordering bug in update_cached_xid_range()Andres Freund2023-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The initialization order in update_cached_xid_range() was wrong, calling FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() before setting ->next_xid. FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() uses ->next_xid. In most situations this will not cause visible issues, because the next call to update_cached_xid_range() will use a less wrong ->next_xid. It's rare that xids advance fast enough for this to be a problem. Found while adding more asserts to the 64bit xid infrastructure.

* Fix misbehavior in contrib/pg_trgm with an unsatisfiable regex.Tom Lane2023-03-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the regex compiler can see that a regex is unsatisfiable (for example, '$foo') then it may emit an NFA having no arcs. pg_trgm's packGraph function did the wrong thing in this case; it would access off the end of a work array, and with bad luck could produce a corrupted output data structure causing more problems later. This could end with wrong answers or crashes in queries using a pg_trgm GIN or GiST index with such a regex. Fix by not trying to de-duplicate if there aren't at least 2 arcs.

* Ensure COPY TO on an RLS-enabled table copies no more than it should.Tom Lane2023-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The COPY documentation is quite clear that "COPY relation TO" copies rows from only the named table, not any inheritance children it may have. However, if you enabled row-level security on the table then this stopped being true, because the code forgot to apply the ONLY modifier in the "SELECT ... FROM relation" query that it constructs in order to allow RLS predicates to be attached. Fix that. Report and patch by Antonin Houska (comment adjustments and test case by me).

* Fix race in SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY.Thomas Munro2023-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit bdaabb9b started skipping doomed transactions when building the list of possible conflicts for SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY. That makes sense, because doomed transactions won't commit, but a couple of subtle things broke: 1. If all uncommitted r/w transactions are doomed, a READ ONLY transaction would arbitrarily not benefit from the safe snapshot optimization. It would not be taken immediately, and yet no other transaction would set SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE later. 2. In the same circumstances but with DEFERRABLE, GetSafeSnapshot() would correctly exit its wait loop without sleeping and then take the optimization in non-assert builds, but assert builds would fail a sanity check that SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE had been set by another transaction. This is similar to the case for PredXact->WritableSxactCount == 0. We should opt out immediately if our possibleUnsafeConflicts list is empty after filtering. The code to maintain the serializable global xmin is moved down below the new opt out site, because otherwise we'd have to reverse its effects before returning. Back-patch to all supported releases.

* Fix corruption due to vacuum_defer_cleanup_age underflowing 64bit xidsAndres Freund2023-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When vacuum_defer_cleanup_age is bigger than the current xid, including the epoch, the subtraction of vacuum_defer_cleanup_age would lead to a wrapped around xid. While that normally is not a problem, the subsequent conversion to a 64bit xid results in a 64bit-xid very far into the future. As that xid is used as a horizon to detect whether rows versions are old enough to be removed, that allows removal of rows that are still visible (i.e. corruption). If vacuum_defer_cleanup_age was never changed from the default, there is no chance of this bug occurring. This bug was introduced in dc7420c2c92. A lesser version of it exists in 12-13, introduced by fb5344c969a, affecting only GiST. The 12-13 version of the issue can, in rare cases, lead to pages in a gist index getting recycled too early, potentially causing index entries to be found multiple times. The fix is fairly simple - don't allow vacuum_defer_cleanup_age to retreat further than FirstNormalTransactionId. Patches to make similar bugs easier to find, by adding asserts to the 64bit xid infrastructure, have been proposed, but are not suitable for backpatching. Currently there are no tests for vacuum_defer_cleanup_age. A patch introducing infrastructure to make writing a test easier has been posted to the list.

* Fix more bugs caused by adding columns to the end of a view.Tom Lane2023-03-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a view is defined atop another view, and then CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW is used to add columns to the lower view, then when the upper view's referencing RTE is expanded by ApplyRetrieveRule we will have a subquery RTE with fewer eref->colnames than output columns. This confuses various code that assumes those lists are always in sync, as they are in plain parser output. We have seen such problems before (cf commit d5b760ecb), and now I think the time has come to do what was speculated about in that commit: let's make ApplyRetrieveRule synthesize some column names to preserve the invariant that holds in parser output. Otherwise we'll be chasing this class of bugs indefinitely. Moreover, it appears from testing that this actually gives us better results in the test case d5b760ecb added, and likely in other corner cases that we lack coverage for. In HEAD, I replaced d5b760ecb's hack to make expandRTE exit early with an elog(ERROR) call, since the case is now presumably unreachable. But it seems like changing that in back branches would bring more risk than benefit, so there I just updated the comment. Per bug #17811 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix some more cases of missed GENERATED-column updates.Tom Lane2023-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If UPDATE is forced to retry after an EvalPlanQual check, it neglected to repeat GENERATED-column computations, even though those might well have changed since we're dealing with a different tuple than before. Fixing this is mostly a matter of looping back a bit further when we retry. In v15 and HEAD that's most easily done by altering the API of ExecUpdateAct so that it includes computing GENERATED expressions. Also, if an UPDATE in a partitioned table turns into a cross-partition INSERT operation, we failed to recompute GENERATED columns. That's a bug since 8bf6ec3ba allowed partitions to have different generation expressions; although it seems to have no ill effects before that. Fixing this is messier because we can now have situations where the same query needs both the UPDATE-aligned set of GENERATED columns and the INSERT-aligned set, and it's unclear which set will be generated first (else we could hack things by forcing the INSERT-aligned set to be generated, which is indeed how fe9e658f4 made it work for MERGE). The best fix seems to be to build and store separate sets of expressions for the INSERT and UPDATE cases. That would create ABI issues in the back branches, but so far it seems we can leave this alone in the back branches. Per bug #17823 from Hisahiro Kauchi. The first part of this affects all branches back to v12 where GENERATED columns were added. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/17823-b64909cf7d63de84@postgresql.org
* In basebackup.c, perform end-of-file test after checksum validation.Robert Haas2023-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We read blocks of data from files that we're backing up in chunks, some multiple of BLCKSZ for each read. If checksum verification fails, we then try rereading just the one block for which validation failed. If that block happened to be the first block of the chunk, and if the file was concurrently truncated to remove that block, then we'd reach a call to bbsink_archive_contents() with a buffer length of 0. That causes an assertion failure. As far as I can see, there are no particularly bad consequences if this happens in a non-assert build, and it's pretty unlikely to happen in the first place because it requires a series of somewhat unlikely things to happen in very quick succession. However, assertion failures are bad, so rearrange the code to avoid that possibility. Patch by me, reviewed by Michael Paquier.

* Fix assert failures in parallel SERIALIZABLE READ ONLY.Thomas Munro2023-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. Make sure that we don't decrement SxactGlobalXminCount twice when the SXACT_FLAG_RO_SAFE optimization is reached in a parallel query. This could trigger a sanity check failure in assert builds. Non-assert builds recompute the count in SetNewSxactGlobalXmin(), so the problem was hidden, explaining the lack of field reports. Add a new isolation test to exercise that case. 2. Remove an assertion that the DOOMED flag can't be set on a partially released SERIALIZABLEXACT. Instead, ignore the flag (our transaction was already determined to be read-only safe, and DOOMED is in fact set during partial release, and there was already an assertion that it wasn't set sooner). Improve an existing isolation test so that it reaches that case (previously it wasn't quite testing what it was supposed to be testing; see discussion). Back-patch to 12. Bug #17116.

* Avoid failure when altering state of partitioned foreign-key triggers.Tom Lane2023-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Beginning in v15, if you apply ALTER TABLE ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER to a partitioned table, it also affects the partitions' cloned versions of the affected trigger(s). The initial implementation of this located the clones by name, but that fails on foreign-key triggers which have names incorporating their own OIDs. We can fix that, and also make the behavior more bulletproof in the face of user-initiated trigger renames, by identifying the cloned triggers by tgparentid. Following the lead of earlier commits in this area, I took care not to break ABI in the v15 branch, even though I rather doubt there are any external callers of EnableDisableTrigger. While here, update the documentation, which was not touched when the semantics were changed. Per bug #17817 from Alan Hodgson. Back-patch to v15; older versions do not have this behavior.

* pageinspect: Fix crash with gist_page_items()Michael Paquier2023-03-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attempting to use this function with a raw page not coming from a GiST index would cause a crash, as it was missing the same sanity checks as gist_page_items_bytea(). This slightly refactors the code so as all the basic validation checks for GiST pages are done in a single routine, in the same fashion as the pageinspect functions for hash and BRIN. This fixes an issue similar to 076f4d9. A test is added to stress for this case. While on it, I have added a similar test for brin_page_items() with a combination make of a valid GiST index and a raw btree page. This one was already protected, but it was not tested.

* Avoid fetching one past the end of translate()'s "to" parameter.Tom Lane2023-03-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is usually harmless, but if you were very unlucky it could provoke a segfault due to the "to" string being right up against the end of memory. Found via valgrind testing (so we might've found it earlier, except that our regression tests lacked any exercise of translate()'s deletion feature). Fix by switching the order of the test-for-end-of-string and advance-pointer steps. While here, compute "to_ptr + tolen" just once.

* Drop test view when done with it.Tom Lane2023-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | The view just added by commit 53fe7e6cb decompiles differently in v15 than HEAD (presumably as a consequence of 47bb9db75).

* Harden postgres_fdw tests against unexpected cache flushes.Tom Lane2023-02-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | postgres_fdw will close its remote session if an sinval cache reset occurs, since it's possible that that means some FDW parameters changed. We had two tests that were trying to ensure that the session remains alive by setting debug_discard_caches = 0; but that's not sufficient. Even though the tests seem stable enough in the buildfarm, they flap a lot under CI. In the first test, which is checking the ability to recover from a lost connection, we can stabilize the results by just not caring whether pg_terminate_backend() finds a victim backend. If a reset did happen, there won't be a session to terminate anymore, but the test can proceed anyway. (Arguably, we are then not testing the unintentional-disconnect case, but as long as that scenario is exercised in most runs I think it's fine; testing the reset-driven case is of value too.) In the second test, which is trying to verify the application_name displayed in pg_stat_activity by a remote session, we had a race condition in that the remote session might go away before we can fetch its pg_stat_activity entry. We can close that race and make the test more certainly test what it intends to by arranging things so that the remote session itself fetches its pg_stat_activity entry (based on PID rather than a somewhat-circular assumption about the application name). Both tests now demonstrably pass under debug_discard_caches = 1, so we can remove that hack. Back-patch into relevant back branches.

* Fix MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK with partitioned target tables, yet again.Tom Lane2023-02-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We already tried to fix this in commits 3f7323cbb et al (and follow-on fixes), but now it emerges that there are still unfixed cases; moreover, these cases affect all branches not only pre-v14. I thought we had eliminated all cases of making multiple clones of an UPDATE's target list when we nuked inheritance_planner. But it turns out we still do that in some partitioned-UPDATE cases, notably including INSERT ... ON CONFLICT UPDATE, because ExecInitPartitionInfo thinks it's okay to clone and modify the parent's targetlist. This fix is based on a suggestion from Andres Freund: let's stop abusing the ParamExecData.execPlan mechanism, which was only ever meant to handle initplans, and instead solve the execution timing problem by having the expression compiler move MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK steps to the front of their expression step lists. This is feasible because (a) all branches still in support compile the entire targetlist of an UPDATE into a single ExprState, and (b) we know that all MULTIEXPR_SUBLINKs do need to be evaluated --- none could be buried inside a CASE, for example. There is a minor semantics change concerning the order of execution of the MULTIEXPR's subquery versus other parts of the parent targetlist, but that seems like something we can get away with. By doing that, we no longer need to worry about whether different clones of a MULTIEXPR_SUBLINK share output Params; their usage of that data structure won't overlap. Per bug #17800 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches. In v13 and earlier, we can revert 3f7323cbb and follow-on fixes; however, I chose to keep the SubPlan.subLinkId field added in ccbb54c72. We don't need that anymore in the core code, but it's cheap enough to fill, and removing a plan node field in a minor release seems like it'd be asking for trouble.

* Fix multi-row DEFAULT handling for INSERT ... SELECT rules.Dean Rasheed2023-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Given an updatable view with a DO ALSO INSERT ... SELECT rule, a multi-row INSERT ... VALUES query on the view fails if the VALUES list contains any DEFAULTs that are not replaced by view defaults. This manifests as an "unrecognized node type" error, or an Assert failure, in an assert-enabled build. The reason is that when RewriteQuery() attempts to replace the remaining DEFAULT items with NULLs in any product queries, using rewriteValuesRTEToNulls(), it assumes that the VALUES RTE is located at the same rangetable index in each product query. However, if the product query is an INSERT ... SELECT, then the VALUES RTE is actually in the SELECT part of that query (at the same index), rather than the top-level product query itself. Fix, by descending to the SELECT in such cases. Note that we can't simply use getInsertSelectQuery() for this, since that expects to be given a raw rule action with OLD and NEW placeholder entries, so we duplicate its logic instead. While at it, beef up the checks in getInsertSelectQuery() by checking that the jointree->fromlist node is indeed a RangeTblRef, and that the RTE it points to has rtekind == RTE_SUBQUERY.

* Fix corruption of templates after CREATE DATABASE .. STRATEGY WAL_LOGMichael Paquier2023-02-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | WAL_LOG does a scan of the template's pg_class to determine the set of relations that need to be copied from a template database to the new one. However, as coded in 9c08aea, this copy strategy would load the pages of pg_class without considering it as a permanent relation, causing the loaded pages to never be flushed when they should. Any modification of the template's pg_class, mostly through DDLs, would then be missed, causing corruptions. STRATEGY = WAL_LOG is the default over FILE_COPY since it has been introduced, so any changes done to pg_class on a database template would be gone. Updates of database templates should be a rare thing, so the impact of this bug should be hopefully limited. The pre-14 default strategy FILE_COPY is safe, and can be used as a workaround.

* Fix erroneous Valgrind markings in AllocSetRealloc.Tom Lane2023-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If asked to decrease the size of a large (>8K) palloc chunk, AllocSetRealloc could improperly change the Valgrind state of memory beyond the new end of the chunk: it would mark data UNDEFINED as far as the old end of the chunk after having done the realloc(3) call, thus tromping on the state of memory that no longer belongs to it. One would normally expect that memory to now be marked NOACCESS, so that this mislabeling might prevent detection of later errors. If realloc() had chosen to move the chunk someplace else (unlikely, but well within its rights) we could also mismark perfectly-valid DEFINED data as UNDEFINED, causing false-positive valgrind reports later. Also, any malloc bookkeeping data placed within this area might now be wrongly marked, causing additional problems. Fix by replacing relevant uses of "oldsize" with "Min(size, oldsize)". It's sufficient to mark as far as "size" when that's smaller, because whatever remains in the new chunk size will be marked NOACCESS below, and we expect realloc() to have taken care of marking the memory beyond the new official end of the chunk. While we're here, also rename the function's "oldsize" variable to "oldchksize" to more clearly explain what it actually holds, namely the distance to the end of the chunk (that is, requested size plus trailing padding). This is more consistent with the use of "size" and "chksize" to hold the new requested size and chunk size. Add a new variable "oldsize" in the one stanza where we're actually talking about the old requested size. Oversight in commit c477f3e44. Back-patch to all supported branches, as that was, just in case anybody wants to do valgrind testing on back branches.

* Fix handling of escape sequences in postgres_fdw.application_nameMichael Paquier2023-02-21

* pgbench: Prepare commands in pipelines in advanceAlvaro Herrera2023-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Failing to do so results in an error when a pgbench script tries to start a serializable transaction inside a pipeline, because by the time BEGIN ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE is executed, we're already in a transaction that has acquired a snapshot, so the server rightfully complains. We can work around that by preparing all commands in the pipeline before actually starting the pipeline. This changes the existing code in two aspects: first, we now prepare each command individually at the point where that command is about to be executed; previously, we would prepare all commands in a script as soon as the first command of that script would be executed. It's hard to see that this would make much of a difference (particularly since it only affects the first time to execute each script in a client), but I didn't actually try to measure it. Secondly, we no longer use PQsendPrepare() in pipeline mode, but only PQprepare. There's no specific reason for this change other than no longer needing to do differently in pipeline mode. (Previously we had no choice, because in pipeline mode PQprepare could not be used.) Backpatch to 14, where pgbench got support for pipeline mode.

* Fix parsing of ISO-8601 interval fields with exponential notation.Tom Lane2023-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically we've accepted interval input like 'P.1e10D'. This is probably an accident of having used strtod() to do the parsing, rather than something anyone intended, but it's been that way for a long time. Commit e39f99046 broke this by trying to parse the integer and fractional parts separately, without accounting for the possibility of an exponent. In principle that coding allowed for precise conversions of field values wider than 15 decimal digits, but that does not seem like a goal worth sweating bullets for. So, rather than trying to manage an exponent on top of the existing complexity, let's just revert to the previous coding that used strtod() by itself. We can still improve on the old code to the extent of allowing the value to range up to 1.0e15 rather than only INT_MAX. (Allowing more than that risks creating problems due to precision loss: the converted fractional part might have absolute value more than 1. Perhaps that could be dealt with in some way, but it really does not seem worth additional effort.) Per bug #17795 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to v15 where the faulty code came in.

* Prevent join removal from removing the query's result relation.Tom Lane2023-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was not something that required consideration before MERGE was invented; but MERGE builds a join tree that left-joins to the result relation, meaning that remove_useless_joins will consider removing it. That should generally be stopped by the query's use of output variables from the result relation. However, if the result relation is inherited (e.g. a partitioned table) then we don't add any row identity variables to the query until expand_inherited_rtentry, which happens after join removal. This was exposed as of commit 3c569049b, which made it possible to deduce that a partitioned table could contain at most one row matching a join key, enabling removal of the not-yet-expanded result relation. Ooops. To fix, let's just teach join_is_removable that the query result rel is never removable. It's a cheap enough test in any case, and it'll save some cycles that we'd otherwise expend in proving that it's not removable, even in the cases we got right. Back-patch to v15 where MERGE was added. Although I think the case cannot be reached in v15, this seems like cheap insurance. Per investigation of a report from Alexander Lakhin.

* Limit memory usage of pg_walinspect functions.Jeff Davis2023-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GetWALRecordsInfo() and pg_get_wal_fpi_info() can leak memory across WAL record iterations. Fix this by using a temporary memory context that's reset for each WAL record iteraion. Also use a temporary context for loops in GetXLogSummaryStats(). The number of iterations is a small constant, so the previous behavior was not a leak, but fix for clarity (but no need to backport). Backport GetWALRecordsInfo() change to version 15. pg_get_wal_fpi_info() didn't exist in version 15.

* Print the correct aliases for DML target tables in ruleutils.Tom Lane2023-02-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ruleutils.c blindly printed the user-given alias (or nothing if there hadn't been one) for the target table of INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE queries. That works a large percentage of the time, but not always: for queries appearing in WITH, it's possible that we chose a different alias to avoid conflict with outer-scope names. Since the chosen alias would be used in any Var references to the target table, this'd lead to an inconsistent printout with consequences such as dump/restore failures. The correct logic for printing (or not) a relation alias was embedded in get_from_clause_item. Factor it out to a separate function so that we don't need a jointree node to use it. (Only a limited part of that function can be reached from these new call sites, but this seems like the cleanest non-duplicative factorization.) In passing, I got rid of a redundant "\d+ rules_src" step in rules.sql. Initial report from Jonathan Katz; thanks to Vignesh C for analysis. This has been broken for a long time, so back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix handling of SCRAM-SHA-256's channel binding with RSA-PSS certificatesMichael Paquier2023-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OpenSSL 1.1.1 and newer versions have added support for RSA-PSS certificates, which requires the use of a specific routine in OpenSSL to determine which hash function to use when compiling it when using channel binding in SCRAM-SHA-256. X509_get_signature_nid(), that is the original routine the channel binding code has relied on, is not able to determine which hash algorithm to use for such certificates. However, X509_get_signature_info(), new to OpenSSL 1.1.1, is able to do it. This commit switches the channel binding logic to rely on X509_get_signature_info() over X509_get_signature_nid(), which would be the choice when building with 1.1.1 or newer. The error could have been triggered on the client or the server, hence libpq and the backend need to have their related code paths patched. Note that attempting to load an RSA-PSS certificate with OpenSSL 1.1.0 or older leads to a failure due to an unsupported algorithm. The discovery of relying on X509_get_signature_info() comes from Jacob, the tests have been written by Heikki (with few tweaks from me), while I have bundled the whole together while adding the bits needed for MSVC and meson. This issue exists since channel binding exists, so backpatch all the way down. Some tests are added in 15~, triggered if compiling with OpenSSL 1.1.1 or newer, where the certificate and key files can easily be generated for RSA-PSS.

* Disable WindowAgg inverse transitions when subplans are presentDavid Rowley2023-02-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an aggregate function is used as a WindowFunc and a tuple transitions out of the window frame, we ordinarily try to make use of the aggregate function's inverse transition function to "unaggregate" the exiting tuple. This optimization is disabled for various cases, including when the aggregate contains a volatile function. In such a case we'd be unable to ensure that the transition value was calculated to the same value during transitions and inverse transitions. Unfortunately, we did this check by calling contain_volatile_functions() which does not recursively search SubPlans for volatile functions. If the aggregate function's arguments or its FILTER clause contained a subplan with volatile functions then we'd fail to notice this. Here we fix this by just disabling the optimization when the WindowFunc contains any subplans. Volatile functions are not the only reason that a subplan may have nonrepeatable results.

* Stop recommending auto-download of DTD files, and indeed disable it.Tom Lane2023-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It appears no longer possible to build the SGML docs without a local installation of the DocBook DTD, because sourceforge.net now only permits HTTPS access, and no common version of xsltproc supports that. Hence, remove the bits of our documentation suggesting that that's possible or useful. In fact, we might as well add the --nonet option to the build recipes automatically, for a bit of extra security. Also fix our documentation-tool-installation recipes for macOS to ensure that xmllint and xsltproc are pulled in from MacPorts or Homebrew. The previous recipes assumed you could use the Apple-supplied versions of these tools; which still works, except that you'd need to set an environment variable to ensure that they would find DTD files provided by those package managers. Simpler and easier to just recommend pulling in the additional packages. In HEAD, also document how to build docs using Meson, and adjust "ninja docs" to just build the HTML docs, for consistency with the default behavior of doc/src/sgml/Makefile. In a fit of neatnik-ism, I also made the ordering of the package lists match the order in which the tools are described at the head of the appendix.

* Properly NULL-terminate GSS receive buffer on error packet receptionMichael Paquier2023-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pqsecure_open_gss() includes a code path handling error messages with v2-style protocol messages coming from the server. The client-side buffer holding the error message does not force a NULL-termination, with the data of the server getting copied to the errorMessage of the connection. Hence, it would be possible for a server to send an unterminated string and copy arbitrary bytes in the buffer receiving the error message in the client, opening the door to a crash or even data exposure. As at this stage of the authentication process the exchange has not been completed yet, this could be abused by an attacker without Kerberos credentials. Clients that have a valid kerberos cache are vulnerable as libpq opportunistically requests for it except if gssencmode is disabled.
