The two methods don't cooperate, so set_config_option("search_path",
...) has been ineffective under non-empty overrideStack. This defect
enabled an attacker having database-level CREATE privilege to execute
arbitrary code as the bootstrap superuser. While that particular attack
requires v13+ for the trusted extension attribute, other attacks are
feasible in all supported versions.
Standardize on the combination of NewGUCNestLevel() and
set_config_option("search_path", ...). It is newer than
PushOverrideSearchPath(), more-prevalent, and has no known
disadvantages. The "override" mechanism remains for now, for
compatibility with out-of-tree code. Users should update such code,
which likely suffers from the same sort of vulnerability closed here.

Security: CVE-2023-2454
Python 3 changed the behavior of PyMapping_Check(), breaking the
test in plpython_to_hstore() that verifies whether a function result
to be transformed is acceptable. A backwards-compatible fix is to
first verify that the object doesn't pass PySequence_Check().
Perhaps accidentally, our other uses of PyMapping_Check() already
follow uses of PySequence_Check(), so that no other bugs were
created by this change.

The leak would show up when using batch inserts with foreign tables
included in a partition tree, as the slots used in the batch were not
reset once processed. In order to fix this problem, some
ExecClearTuple() are added to clean up the slots used once a batch is
filled and processed, mapping with the number of slots currently in use
as tracked by the counter ri_NumSlots.
This buffer refcount leak has been introduced in b676ac4 with the
addition of the executor facility to improve bulk inserts for FDWs, so
backpatch down to 14.
Alexander has provided the patch (slightly modified by me). The test
for postgres_fdw comes from me, based on the test case that the author

In such cases, get_xid_status() doesn't set its output parameter (the
third argument), so we shouldn't fall through to code which will test
the value of that parameter. There are five existing calls to
get_xid_status(), three of which seem to already handle this case
properly. This commit tries to fix the other two.
If we're checking xmin and find that it is invalid (i.e. 0) just
report that as corruption, similar to what's already done in the
three cases that seem correct. If we're checking xmax and find
that's invalid, that's fine: it just means that the tuple hasn't
been updated or deleted.

64bit xids can't represent xids before epoch 0 (see also be504a3e97). When
FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() was passed such an xid, it'd create a 64bit
xid far into the future. Noticed while adding assertions in the course of
investigating be504a3e97, as amcheck's test create such xids.
To fix the issue, just return FirstNormalFullTransactionId in this case. A
freshly initdb'd cluster already has a newer horizon. The most minimal version
of this would make the messages for some detected corruptions differently
inaccurate. To make those cases accurate, switch
FullTransactionIdFromXidAndCtx() to use the 32bit modulo difference between
xid and nextxid to compute the 64bit xid, yielding sensible "in the future" /
"in the past" answers.

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.

Attempting to use this function with a raw page not coming from a GiST

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.

We were identifying the updatable generated columns of inheritance
children by transposing the calculation made for their parent.
However, there's nothing that says a traditional-inheritance child
can't have generated columns that aren't there in its parent, or that
have different dependencies than are in the parent's expression.
(At present it seems that we don't enforce that for partitioning
either, which is likely wrong to some degree or other; but the case
clearly needs to be handled with traditional inheritance.)
Hence, drop the very-klugy-anyway "extraUpdatedCols" RTE field
in favor of identifying which generated columns depend on updated
columns during executor startup. In HEAD we can remove
extraUpdatedCols altogether; in back branches, it's still there but
always empty. Another difference between the HEAD and back-branch
versions of this patch is that in HEAD we can add the new bitmap field
to ResultRelInfo, but that would cause an ABI break in back branches.
Like 4b3e37993, add a List field at the end of struct EState instead.
Back-patch to v13. The bogus calculation is also being made in v12,
but it doesn't have the same visible effect because we don't use it
to decide which generated columns to recalculate; as a consequence of
which the patch doesn't apply easily. I think that there might still
be a demonstrable bug associated with trigger firing conditions, but
that's such a weird corner-case usage that I'm content to leave it
unfixed in v12.

Commit b663a4136, which allowed FDWs to INSERT rows in bulk, added to
nodeModifyTable.c code to flush pending inserts to the foreign-table
result relation(s) before completing processing of the ModifyTable node,
but the code failed to take into account the case where the INSERT query
has modifying CTEs, leading to incorrect results.
Also, that commit failed to flush pending inserts before firing BEFORE
ROW triggers so that rows are visible to such triggers.
In that commit we scanned through EState's
es_tuple_routing_result_relations or es_opened_result_relations list to
find the foreign-table result relations to which pending inserts are
flushed, but that would be inefficient in some cases. So to fix, 1) add
a List member to EState to record the insert-pending result relations,
and 2) modify nodeModifyTable.c so that it adds the foreign-table result
relation to the list in ExecInsert() if appropriate, and flushes pending
inserts properly using the list where needed.

This reverts commit 5cda142bb9
(in v14 only).
It turns out that that fails under force_parallel_mode = regress,
because pageinspect's disk-access functions are marked parallel
safe, which they are not if you try to use them on a temp table.
The cost of fixing that pre-v15 seems to exceed the value of
making this test case fully stable, so we will just leave things
as-is in v14.
pageinspect has occasionally failed on slow buildfarm members,
with symptoms indicating that the expected effects of VACUUM
FREEZE didn't happen. This is presumably because a background
transaction such as auto-analyze was holding back global xmin.
We can work around that by using a temp table in the test.
Since commit a7212be8b, that will use an up-to-date cutoff xmin
regardless of other processes. And pageinspect itself shouldn't
really care whether the table is temp.
Back-patch to v14. There would be no point in older branches
without back-patching a7212be8b, which seems like more trouble

This is a back-patch of the v15-era commit f10f0ae42 into older
supported branches. The idea is to design out bugs in which an
ill-timed relcache flush clears rel->rd_smgr partway through
some code sequence that wasn't expecting that. We had another
report today of a corner case that reliably crashes v14 under
debug_discard_caches (nee CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS), and therefore
would crash once in a blue moon in the field. We're unlikely
to get rid of all such code paths unless we adopt the more
rigorous coding rules instituted by f10f0ae42. Therefore,
even though this is a bit invasive, it's time to back-patch.
Some comfort can be taken in the fact that f10f0ae42 has been
in v15 for 16 months without problems.
I left the RelationOpenSmgr macro present in the back branches,
even though no core code should use it anymore, in order to not break
third-party extensions in minor releases. Such extensions might opt
to start using RelationGetSmgr instead, to reduce their code
differential between v15 and earlier branches. This carries a hazard
of failing to compile against headers from existing minor releases.
However, once compiled the extension should work fine even with such
releases, because RelationGetSmgr is a "static inline" function so
it creates no link-time dependency. So depending on distribution
practices, that might be an OK tradeoff.

When executing a utility statement, we must fetch everything
we need out of the PlannedStmt data structure before calling
standard_ProcessUtility. In certain cases (possibly only ROLLBACK
in extended query protocol), that data structure will get freed
during command execution. The situation is probably often harmless
in production builds, but in debug builds we intentionally overwrite
the freed memory with garbage, leading to picking up garbage values
of statement location and length, typically causing an assertion
failure later in pg_stat_statements. In non-debug builds, if
something did go wrong it would likely lead to storing garbage
for the query string.

This problem has been introduced by commit 272248a0c1 where we started
assigning the subtransactions to the top-level transaction when we mark
both the top-level transaction and its subtransactions as containing
catalog changes. After we assign subtransactions to the top-level
transaction, we were not allowed to execute any invalidations associated
with it when we decide to skip the transaction.
The reason to assign the subtransactions to the top-level transaction was
to avoid the assertion failure in AssertTXNLsnOrder() as they have the
same LSN when we sometimes start accumulating transaction changes for
partial transactions after the restart. Now that with commit 64ff0fe4e8,
we skip this assertion check until we reach the LSN at which we start
decoding the contents of the transaction, so, there is no reason for such
an assignment anymore.
The assignment change was introduced in 15 and prior versions but this bug
doesn't exist in branches prior to 14 since we don't add invalidation
messages to subtransactions. We decided to backpatch through 11 for
consistency but not for 10 since its final release is near.

When the logical decoding restarts from NEW_CID, since there is no
association between the top transaction and its subtransaction, both are
created as top transactions and have the same LSN. This caused the
assertion failure in AssertTXNLsnOrder().
This patch skips the assertion check until we reach the LSN at which we
start decoding the contents of the transaction, specifically
start_decoding_at LSN in SnapBuild. This is okay because we don't
guarantee to make the association between top transaction and
subtransaction until we try to decode the actual contents of transaction.
The ordering of the records prior to the start_decoding_at LSN should have
been checked before the restart.
The other assertion failure is due to the reason that we forgot to track
that we have considered top-level transaction id in the list of catalog
changing transactions that were committed when one of its subtransactions
is marked as containing catalog change.

The tlist of the EvalPlanQual outer plan for a ForeignScan node is

evaluating PlaceHolderVars or columns required only for evaluating local

The cause of this is that when creating the outer plan by injecting the

up through the Sort node, causing setrefs.c to fail to match up them in

Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION
records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that
information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart,
if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction
that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the
snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong
snapshot.
To fix this problem, this changes the snapshot builder so that it
remembers the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS record
after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark the
transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of initial
running transactions and its commit record has XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. To
avoid ABI breakage, we store the array of the initial running transactions
in the static variables InitialRunningXacts and NInitialRunningXacts,
instead of storing those in SnapBuild or ReorderBuffer.
This approach has a false positive; we could end up adding the transaction
that didn't change catalog to the snapshot since we cannot distinguish
whether the transaction has catalog changes only by checking the COMMIT
record. It doesn't have the information on which (sub) transaction has
catalog changes, and XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS doesn't necessarily indicate
that the transaction has catalog change. But that won't be a problem since
we use snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs.
On the master branch, we took a more future-proof approach by writing
catalog modifying transactions to the serialized snapshot which avoids the
above false positive. But we cannot backpatch it because of a change in
the SnapBuild.

When inserting a view referencing a foreign table that has WITH CHECK

data that was actually inserted on the remote side so that the WITH
CHECK OPTION constraints are enforced with the data locally, but in
batch-insert mode it cannot currently retrieve the data (except for the
row first inserted through the view), resulting in enforcing the WITH
CHECK OPTION constraints with the data passed from the core (except for
the first-inserted row), which led to incorrect results when inserting
into a view referencing a foreign table in which a remote BEFORE ROW
INSERT trigger changes the rows inserted through the view so that they

We've heard a couple of reports of people having trouble with
multi-gigabyte-sized query-texts files. It occurred to me that on
32-bit platforms, there could be an issue with integer overflow
of calculations associated with the total query text size.
Address that with several changes:
1. Limit pg_stat_statements.max to INT_MAX / 2 not INT_MAX.
The hashtable code will bound it to that anyway unless "long"
is 64 bits. We still need overflow guards on its use, but
this helps.
2. Add a check to prevent extending the query-texts file to
more than MaxAllocHugeSize. If it got that big, qtext_load_file
would certainly fail, so there's not much point in allowing it.
Without this, we'd need to consider whether extent, query_offset,
and related variables shouldn't be off_t not size_t.
3. Adjust the comparisons in need_gc_qtexts() to be done in 64-bit
arithmetic on all platforms. It appears possible that under duress
those multiplications could overflow 32 bits, yielding a false
conclusion that we need to garbage-collect the texts file, which
could lead to repeatedly garbage-collecting after every hash table
insertion.
Per report from Bruno da Silva. I'm not convinced that these
issues fully explain his problem; there may be some other bug that's
contributing to the query-texts file becoming so large in the first
place. But it did get that big, so #2 is a reasonable defense,
and #3 could explain the reported performance difficulties.

Security: CVE-2022-1552
mark_async_capable_plan(), which is called from create_append_plan() to
determine whether subplans are async-capable, failed to take into
account that the given subplan created from a given subpath might
include a gating Result node if the subpath is a SubqueryScanPath or
ForeignPath, causing a segmentation fault there when the subplan created
from a SubqueryScanPath includes the Result node, or causing
ExecAsyncRequest() to throw an error about an unrecognized node type
when the subplan created from a ForeignPath includes the Result node,
because in the latter case the Result node was unintentionally
considered as async-capable, but we don't currently support executing
Result nodes asynchronously. Fix by modifying mark_async_capable_plan()
to disable asynchronous execution in such cases. Also, adjust code in
the ProjectionPath case in mark_async_capable_plan(), for consistency
with other cases, and adjust/improve comments there.
is_async_capable_path() added in commit 27e1f1456, which was rewritten
to mark_async_capable_plan() in a later commit, has the same issue,
causing the error at execution mentioned above, so back-patch to v14
where the aforesaid commit went in.

Getting from get_raw_page() an all-zero page is considered as a valid
case by the buffer manager and it can happen for example when finding a
corrupted page with zero_damaged_pages enabled (using zero_damaged_pages
to look at corrupted pages happens), or after a crash when a relation
file is extended before any WAL for its new data is generated (before a
vacuum or autovacuum job comes in to do some cleanup).
However, all the functions of pageinspect, as of the index AMs (except
hash that has its own idea of new pages), heap, the FSM or the page
header have never worked with all-zero pages, causing various crashes
when going through the page internals.
This commit changes all the pageinspect functions to be compliant with
all-zero pages, where the choice is made to return NULL or no rows for
SRFs when finding a new page. get_raw_page() still works the same way,
returning a batch of zeros in the bytea of the page retrieved. A hard
error could be used but NULL, while more invasive, is useful when
scanning relation files in full to get a batch of results for a single
relation in one query. Tests are added for all the code paths
impacted.

postgres_fdw would push ORDER BY clauses to the remote side without
verifying that the sort operator is safe to ship. Moreover, it failed
to print a suitable USING clause if the sort operator isn't default
for the sort expression's type. The net result of this is that the
remote sort might not have anywhere near the semantics we expect,
which'd be disastrous for locally-performed merge joins in particular.
We addressed similar issues in the context of ORDER BY within an
aggregate function call in commit 7012b132d, but failed to notice
that query-level ORDER BY was broken. Thus, much of the necessary
logic already existed, but it requires refactoring to be usable
in both cases.
Back-patch to all supported branches. In HEAD only, remove the
core code's copy of find_em_expr_for_rel, which is no longer used
and really should never have been pushed into equivclass.c in the
first place.

A couple of code paths use the special area on the page passed by the
function caller, expecting to find some data in it. However, feeding
an incorrect page can lead to out-of-bound reads when trying to access
the page special area (like a heap page that has no special area,
leading PageGetSpecialPointer() to grab a pointer outside the allocated
page).
The functions used for hash and btree indexes have some protection
already against that, while some other functions using a relation OID
as argument would make sure that the access method involved is correct,
but functions taking in input a raw page without knowing the relation
the page is attached to would run into problems.
This commit improves the set of checks used in the code paths of BRIN,
btree (including one check if a leaf page is found with a non-zero
level), GIN and GiST to verify that the page given in input has a
special area size that fits with each access method, which is done
though PageGetSpecialSize(), becore calling PageGetSpecialPointer().
The scope of the checks done is limited to work with pages that one
would pass after getting a block with get_raw_page(), as it is possible
to craft byteas that could bypass existing code paths. Having too many
checks would also impact the usability of pageinspect, as the existing
code is very useful to look at the content details in a corrupted page,
so the focus is really to avoid out-of-bound reads as this is never a
good thing even with functions whose execution is limited to
superusers.
The safest approach could be to rework the functions so as these fetch a
block using a relation OID and a block number, but there are also cases
where using a raw page is useful.
Tests are added to cover all the code paths that needed such checks, and
an error message for hash indexes is reworded to fit better with what
this commit adds.

The previous method for doing that was to write zeroes into a
predetermined set of page locations. However, there's a roughly
1-in-64K chance that the existing checksum will match by chance,
and yesterday several buildfarm animals started to reproducibly
see that, resulting in test failures because no checksum mismatch
was reported.
Since the checksum includes the page LSN, test success depends on
the length of the installation's WAL history, which is affected by
(at least) the initial catalog contents, the set of locales installed
on the system, and the length of the pathname of the test directory.
Sooner or later we were going to hit a chance match, and today is
that day.
Harden these tests by specifically inverting the checksum field and
leaving all else alone, thereby guaranteeing that the checksum is
incorrect.
In passing, fix places that were using seek() to set up for syswrite(),
a combination that the Perl docs very explicitly warn against. We've
probably escaped problems because no regular buffered I/O is done on
these filehandles; but if it ever breaks, we wouldn't deserve or get
much sympathy.
Although we've only seen problems in HEAD, now that we recognize the
environmental dependencies it seems like it might be just a matter
of time until someone manages to hit this in back-branch testing.
Hence, back-patch to v11 where we started doing this kind of test.

911e702077 implemented operator class parameters including the signature length
in ltree. Previously, the signature length for gist_ltree_ops was 8. Because
of bug 911e702077 the default signature length for gist_ltree_ops became 28 for
ltree 1.1 (where options method is NOT provided) and 8 for ltree 1.2 (where
options method is provided). This commit changes the default signature length
for ltree 1.1 to 8.
Existing gist_ltree_ops indexes might be corrupted in various scenarios.
Thus, we have to recommend reindexing all the gist_ltree_ops indexes after
the upgrade.

This commit fixes a set of issues related to the use of the SQL
functions in this module when the caller is able to pass down raw page
data as input argument:
- The page size check was fuzzy in a couple of places, sometimes
looking after only a sub-range, but what we are looking for is an exact
match on BLCKSZ. After considering a few options here, I have settled
down to do a generalization of get_page_from_raw(). Most of the SQL
functions already used that, and this is not strictly required if not
accessing an 8-byte-wide value from a raw page, but this feels safer in
the long run for alignment-picky environment, particularly if a code
path begins to access such values. This also reduces the number of
strings that need to be translated.
- The BRIN function brin_page_items() uses a Relation but it did not
check the access method of the opened index, potentially leading to
crashes. All the other functions in need of a Relation already did
that.
- Some code paths could fail on elog(), but we should to use ereport()
for failures that can be triggered by the user.
Tests are added to stress all the cases that are fixed as of this
commit, with some junk raw pages (\set VERBOSITY ensures that this works
across all page sizes) and unexpected index types when functions open
relations.

Slow hosts may avoid load-induced, spurious failures by setting
environment variable PG_TEST_TIMEOUT_DEFAULT to some number of seconds
greater than 180. Developers may see faster failures by setting that
environment variable to some lesser number of seconds. In tests, write
$PostgreSQL::Test::Utils::timeout_default wherever the convention has
been to write 180. This change raises the default for some briefer
timeouts. Back-patch to v10 (all supported versions).

Most of these are cases where we could call memcpy() or other libc
functions with a NULL pointer and a zero count, which is forbidden
by POSIX even though every production version of libc allows it.
We've fixed such things before in a piecemeal way, but apparently
never made an effort to try to get them all. I don't claim that
this patch does so either, but it gets every failure I observe in
check-world, using clang 12.0.1 on current RHEL8.
numeric.c has a different issue that the sanitizer doesn't like:
"ln(-1.0)" will compute log10(0) and then try to assign the
resulting -Inf to an integer variable. We don't actually use the
result in such a case, so there's no live bug.
Back-patch to all supported branches, with the idea that we might
start running a buildfarm member that tests this case. This includes
back-patching c1132aae3 (Check the size in COPY_POINTER_FIELD),
which previously silenced some of these issues in copyfuncs.c.

Currently, during UPDATE, the unchanged replica identity key attributes
are not logged separately because they are getting logged as part of the
new tuple. But if they are stored externally then the untoasted values are
not getting logged as part of the new tuple and logical replication won't
be able to replicate such UPDATEs. So we need to log such attributes as
part of the old_key_tuple during UPDATE.

Commit 27e1f1456 failed to process a pending asynchronous request made
for a given ForeignScan node in postgresReScanForeignScan() (if any) in
cases where we would only reset the next_tuple counter in that function,
contradicting the assumption that there should be no pending
asynchronous requests that have been made for async-capable subplans for
the parent Append node after ReScan. This led to an assert failure in
an assert-enabled build. I think this would also lead to mis-rewinding
the cursor in that function in the case where we have already fetched
one batch for the ForeignScan node and the asynchronous request has been
made for the second batch, because even in that case we would just reset
the counter when called from that function, so we would fail to execute
MOVE BACKWARD ALL.
To fix, modify that function to process the asynchronous request before
restarting the scan.
While at it, add a comment to a function to match other places.

Commit 27e1f1456 resets the per-connection states of connections used to
scan foreign tables asynchronously during abort cleanup at main
transaction end, but it failed to do so during subabort cleanup at
subtransaction end, leading to a segmentation fault when re-executing an
asynchronous-foreign-table-scan query in a transaction that was
cancelled in a subtransaction of it.
Fix by modifying pgfdw_abort_cleanup() to reset the per-connection state
of a given connection also when called for subabort cleanup. Also,
modify that function to do the reset in both the abort-cleanup and
subabort-cleanup cases if necessary, to save cycles, and improve a
comment on it a little bit.
