* Remove configure switch --disable-strong-randomMichael Paquier2019-01-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes a portion of infrastructure introduced by fe0a0b5 to allow compilation of Postgres in environments where no strong random source is available, meaning that there is no linking to OpenSSL and no /dev/urandom (Windows having its own CryptoAPI). No systems shipped this century lack /dev/urandom, and the buildfarm is actually not testing this switch at all, so just remove it. This simplifies particularly some backend code which included a fallback implementation using shared memory, and removes a set of alternate regression output files from pgcrypto.

* Fix pgcrypto compilation with OpenSSL 1.1.0.Heikki Linnakangas2016-12-12
| | | | | | | | | Was broken by the switch to using OpenSSL's EVP interface for ciphers, in commit 5ff4a67f. Reported by Andres Freund. Fix by Michael Paquier with some kibitzing by me. Discussion: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20161201014826.ic72tfkahmevpwz7@alap3.anarazel.de
* Replace PostmasterRandom() with a stronger source, second attempt.Heikki Linnakangas2016-12-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new routine, pg_strong_random() for generating random bytes, for use in both frontend and backend. At the moment, it's only used in the backend, but the upcoming SCRAM authentication patches need strong random numbers in libpq as well. pg_strong_random() is based on, and replaces, the existing implementation in pgcrypto. It can acquire strong random numbers from a number of sources, depending on what's available: - OpenSSL RAND_bytes(), if built with OpenSSL - On Windows, the native cryptographic functions are used - /dev/urandom Unlike the current pgcrypto function, the source is chosen by configure. That makes it easier to test different implementations, and ensures that we don't accidentally fall back to a less secure implementation, if the primary source fails. All of those methods are quite reliable, it would be pretty surprising for them to fail, so we'd rather find out by failing hard. If no strong random source is available, we fall back to using erand48(), seeded from current timestamp, like PostmasterRandom() was. That isn't cryptographically secure, but allows us to still work on platforms that don't have any of the above stronger sources. Because it's not very secure, the built-in implementation is only used if explicitly requested with --disable-strong-random. This replaces the more complicated Fortuna algorithm we used to have in pgcrypto, which is unfortunate, but all modern platforms have /dev/urandom, so it doesn't seem worth the maintenance effort to keep that. pgcrypto functions that require strong random numbers will be disabled with --disable-strong-random. Original patch by Magnus Hagander, tons of further work by Michael Paquier and me.

* pgcrypto: support changing S2K iteration countAlvaro Herrera2016-03-09
| | | | | | | | | | pgcrypto already supports key-stretching during symmetric encryption, including the salted-and-iterated method; but the number of iterations was not configurable. This commit implements a new s2k-count parameter to pgp_sym_encrypt() which permits selecting a larger number of iterations. Author: Jeff Janes

| | | | | This includes removing tabs after periods in C comments, which was applied to back branches, so this change should not effect backpatching.
