From d9809bf8694c17e05537c5dd96cde3e67c02d52a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Tue, 20 Jul 2021 13:01:48 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Fix corner-case uninitialized-variable issues in plpgsql. If an error was raised during our initial attempt to check whether a successfully-compiled expression is "simple", subsequent calls of exec_stmt_execsql would suppose that stmt->mod_stmt was already computed when it had not been. This could lead to assertion failures in debug builds; in production builds the effect would typically be to act as if INTO STRICT had been specified even when it had not been. Of course that only matters if the subsequent attempt to execute the expression succeeds, so that the problem can only be reached by fixing a failure in some referenced, inline-able SQL function and then retrying the calling plpgsql function in the same session. (There might be even-more-obscure ways to change the expression's behavior without changing the plpgsql function, but that one seems like the only one people would be likely to hit in practice.) The most foolproof way to fix this would be to arrange for exec_prepare_plan to not set expr->plan until we've finished the subsidiary simple-expression check. But it seems hard to do that without creating reference-count leak issues. So settle for documenting the hazard in a comment and fixing exec_stmt_execsql to test separately for whether it's computed stmt->mod_stmt. (That adds a test-and-branch per execution, but hopefully that's negligible in context.) In v11 and up, also fix exec_stmt_call which had a variant of the same issue. Per bug #17113 from Alexander Lakhin. Back-patch to all supported branches.
