* Fix fuzzy thinking about amcanmulticol versus amcaninclude.Tom Lane2020-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These flags should be independent: in particular an index AM should be able to say that it supports include columns without necessarily supporting multiple key columns. The included-columns patch got this wrong, possibly aided by the fact that it didn't bother to update the documentation. While here, clarify some text about amcanreturn, which was a little vague about what should happen when amcanreturn reports that only some of the index columns are returnable. Noted while reviewing the SP-GiST included-columns patch, which quite incorrectly (and unsafely) changed SP-GiST to claim amcanmulticol = true as a workaround for this bug. Backpatch to v11 where included columns were introduced.

* Remove useless SHA256 initialization when not using backup manifestsMichael Paquier2020-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Attempting to take a base backup with Postgres linking to a build of OpenSSL with FIPS enabled currently fails with or even without a backup manifest requested because of this mandatory SHA256 initialization used for the manifest file itself. However, there is no need to do this initialization at all if backup manifests are not needed because there is no data to append to the manifest. Note that being able to use backup manifests with OpenSSL+FIPS requires a switch of the SHA2 implementation to use EVP, which would cause an ABI breakage so this cannot be backpatched to 13 as it has been already released, but at least avoiding this SHA256 initialization gives users the possibility to take a base backup even when specifying --no-manifest with pg_basebackup.

* Fix and simplify some usages of TimestampDifference().Tom Lane2020-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds() to simplify callers that would rather have the difference in milliseconds, instead of the select()-oriented seconds-and-microseconds format. This gets rid of at least one integer division per call, and it eliminates some apparently-easy-to-mess-up arithmetic. Two of these call sites were in fact wrong: * pg_prewarm's autoprewarm_main() forgot to multiply the seconds by 1000, thus ending up with a delay 1000X shorter than intended. That doesn't quite make it a busy-wait, but close. * postgres_fdw's pgfdw_get_cleanup_result() thought it needed to compute microseconds not milliseconds, thus ending up with a delay 1000X longer than intended. Somebody along the way had noticed this problem but misdiagnosed the cause, and imposed an ad-hoc 60-second limit rather than fixing the units. This was relatively harmless in context, because we don't care that much about exactly how long this delay is; still, it's wrong. There are a few more callers of TimestampDifference() that don't have a direct need for seconds-and-microseconds, but can't use TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds() either because they do need microsecond precision or because they might possibly deal with intervals long enough to overflow 32-bit milliseconds. It might be worth inventing another API to improve that, but that seems outside the scope of this patch; so those callers are untouched here. Given the fact that we are fixing some bugs, and the likelihood that future patches might want to back-patch code that uses this new API, back-patch to all supported branches.

* Work around cross-version-upgrade issues created by commit 9e38c2bb5.Tom Lane2020-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Summarily changing the STYPE of regression-test aggregates that depend on array_append or array_cat is an issue for the buildfarm's cross-version-upgrade tests, because those aggregates (as defined in the back branches) now won't load into HEAD. Although this seems like only a minimal risk for genuine user-defined aggregates, we need to do something for the buildfarm. Hence, adjust the aggregate definitions, in both HEAD and the back branches.

* Ignore attempts to \gset into specially treated variables.Noah Misch2020-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If an interactive psql session used \gset when querying a compromised server, the attacker could execute arbitrary code as the operating system account running psql. Using a prefix not found among specially treated variables, e.g. every lowercase string, precluded the attack. Fix by issuing a warning and setting no variable for the column in question. Users wanting the old behavior can use a prefix and then a meta-command like "\set HISTSIZE :prefix_HISTSIZE". Back-patch to 9.5 (all supported versions). Reviewed by Robert Haas.

* In security-restricted operations, block enqueue of at-commit user code.Noah Misch2020-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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

* In INSERT/UPDATE, use the table's real tuple descriptor as target.Tom Lane2020-11-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This back-patches commit 20d3fe900 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 buildfarm thinks this leads to memory stomps, though annoyingly I can't duplicate that here.

* Fix ecpg's mishandling of B'...' and X'...' literals.Tom Lane2020-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 7f380c59f, 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 7f380c59f, 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.

* Properly detoast data in brin_form_tupleTomas Vondra2020-11-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Fix nbtree cleanup-only VACUUM stats inaccuracies.Peter Geoghegan2020-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fill_hba_line() thought it could get away with passing sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage) rather than the actual addrlen previously returned by getaddrinfo(). While that appears to work on many platforms, it does not work on FreeBSD 11: you get back a failure, which leads to the view showing NULL for the address and netmask columns in all rows. The POSIX spec for getnameinfo() is pretty clearly on FreeBSD's side here: you should pass the actual address length. So it seems plausible that there are other platforms where this coding also fails, and we just hadn't noticed. Also, IMO the fact that getnameinfo() failure leads to a NULL output is pretty bogus in itself. Our pg_getnameinfo_all() wrapper is careful to emit "???" on failure, and we should use that in such cases. NULL should only be emitted in rows that don't have IP addresses.

Separately from that, pglz_decompress() failed to protect itself against corrupt compressed data, particularly off == 0 in a match tag. Commit c60e520f6 turned such a situation into an infinite loop, where before it'd just have resulted in garbage output. The combination of these two bugs seems like it may explain bug #16694 from Tom Vijlbrief, though it's impossible to be quite sure without direct inspection of the failing session. (One needs to assume that the pglz_maximum_compressed_size() bug caused us to fail to fetch the second byte of a match tag, and what happened to be there instead was a zero.

This also fixes an oversight that rewriteTargetView failed to update extraUpdatedCols when transforming an UPDATE on an updatable view. (Since the new calculation is downstream of that, rewriteTargetView doesn't actually need to do anything; but before, there was a demonstrable bug there.) In v13 and HEAD, this leads to easily-visible bugs because (since commit c6679e4fc) we won't recalculate generated columns that aren't listed in extraUpdatedCols. In v12 this bitmap is mostly just used for trigger-firing decisions, so you'd only notice a problem if a trigger cared whether a generated column had been updated. I'd complained about this back in May, but then forgot about it until bug #16671 from Michael Paul Killian revived the issue. Back-patch to v12 where this field was introduced. If existing stored rules contain any extraUpdatedCols values, they'll be ignored because the rewriter will overwrite them, so the bug will be fixed even for existing rules. (But note that if someone were to update to 13.1 or 12.5, store some rules with UPDATEs on tables having generated columns, and then downgrade to a prior minor version, they might observe issues similar to what this patch fixes. That seems unlikely enough to not be worth going to a lot of effort to fix.)

* pg_dump: Lock all relations, not just plain tablesAlvaro Herrera2020-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that LOCK TABLE can take any relation type, acquire lock on all relations that are to be dumped. This prevents schema changes or deadlock errors that could cause a dump to fail after expending much effort. The server is tested to have the capability and the feature disabled if it doesn't, so that a patched pg_dump doesn't fail when connecting to an unpatched server. Backpatch to 9.5.

* Accept relations of any kind in LOCK TABLEAlvaro Herrera2020-10-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The restriction that only tables and views can be locked by LOCK TABLE is quite arbitrary, since the underlying mechanism can lock any relation type. Drop the restriction so that programs such as pg_dump can lock all relations they're interested in, preventing schema changes that could cause a dump to fail after expending much effort.

* Fix corner case for a BEFORE ROW UPDATE trigger returning OLD.Tom Lane2020-10-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the old row has any "missing" attributes that are supposed to be retrieved from an associated tuple descriptor, the wrong things happened because the trigger result is shoved directly into an executor slot that lacks the missing-attribute data. Notably, CHECK-constraint verification would incorrectly see those columns as NULL, and so would RETURNING-list evaluation. Band-aid around this by forcibly expanding the tuple before passing it to the trigger function. (IMO it was a fundamental misdesign to put the missing-attribute data into tuple constraints, which so much of the system considers to be optional. But we're probably stuck with that now, and will have to continue to apply band-aids as we find other places with similar issues.) Back-patch to v12. v11 would also have the issue, except that commit 920311ab1 already applied a similar band-aid. That forced expansion in more cases than seem really necessary, though, so this isn't a directly equivalent fix.

* Fix ancient bug in ecpg's pthread_once() emulation for Windows.Tom Lane2020-10-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We must not set the "done" flag until after we've executed the initialization function. Otherwise, other threads can fall through the initial unlocked test before initialization is really complete. This has been seen to cause rare failures of ecpg's thread/descriptor test, and it could presumably cause other sorts of misbehavior in threaded ECPG-using applications, since ecpglib relies on pthread_once() in several places. Diagnosis and patch by me, based on investigation by Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches (the bug dates to 2007).

* Fix connection string handling in psql's \connect command.Tom Lane2020-10-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | psql's \connect claims to be able to re-use previous connection parameters, but in fact it only re-uses the database name, user name, host name (and possibly hostaddr, depending on version), and port. This is problematic for assorted use cases. Notably, pg_dump[all] emits "\connect databasename" commands which we would like to have re-use all other parameters. If such a script is loaded in a psql run that initially had "-d connstring" with some non-default parameters, those other parameters would be lost, potentially causing connection failure. (Thus, this is the same kind of bug addressed in commits a45bc8a4f and 8e5793ab6, although the details are much different.) To fix, redesign do_connect() so that it pulls out all properties of the old PGconn using PQconninfo(), and then replaces individual properties in that array. In the case where we don't wish to re-use anything, get libpq's default settings using PQconndefaults() and replace entries in that, so that we don't need different code paths for the two cases. This does result in an additional behavioral change for cases where the original connection parameters allowed multiple hosts, say "psql -h host1,host2", and the \connect request allows re-use of the host setting. Because the previous coding relied on PQhost(), it would only permit reconnection to the same host originally selected. Although one can think of scenarios where that's a good thing, there are others where it is not. Moreover, that behavior doesn't seem to meet the principle of least surprise, nor was it documented; nor is it even clear it was intended, since that coding long pre-dates the addition of multi-host support to libpq. Hence, this patch is content to drop it and re-use the host list as given. Per Peter Eisentraut's comments on bug #16604. Back-patch to all supported branches.

* Fix ALTER TABLE .. ENABLE/DISABLE TRIGGER recursionAlvaro Herrera2020-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | More precisely, correctly handle the ONLY flag indicating not to recurse. This was implemented in 86f575948c77 by recursing in trigger.c, but that's the wrong place; use ATSimpleRecursion instead, which behaves properly. However, because legacy inheritance has never recursed in that situation, make sure to do that only for new-style partitioning. I noticed this problem while testing a fix for another bug in the vicinity. This has been wrong all along, so backpatch to 11. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20201016235925.GA29829@alvherre.pgsql
