If an SRF in the FROM clause references a table having row-level
security policies, and we inline that SRF into the calling query,
we neglected to mark the plan as potentially dependent on which
role is executing it. This could lead to later executions in the

Security: CVE-2023-2455
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.

Commit 153e215677 added the portlock directory. This is created in
$ENV{top_builddir} if it is set. Under PGXS, top_builddir points into
the installation directory, which is not necessarily writable and in
any case inappropriate to use by a test suite. The cause of the
problem is that the prove_installcheck target in Makefile.global
exports top_builddir, which isn't useful (since no other Perl code
actually reads it) and breaks this use case. The reason this code is
there is probably that is has been dragged around with various other
changes, in particular a0fc813266, but without a real purpose of its
own. By just removing the exporting of top_builddir in
prove_installcheck, the portlock directory then ends up under
tmp_check in the build directory, which is more suitable.

These functions incautiously fetched the array's first lower bound
even when the array is zero-dimensional, thus fetching the word
after the allocated array space. While almost always harmless,
with very bad luck this could result in SIGSEGV. Fix by adding

Like plperl before f47004add, plpython wasn't being sufficiently
careful about checking that list-of-list structures represent
rectangular arrays, so that it would accept some cases in which
different parts of the "array" are nested to different depths.
This was exacerbated by Python's weak distinction between
sequences and lists, so that in some cases strings could get
treated as though they are lists (and burst into individual
characters) even though a different ordering of the upper-level
list would give a different result.
Some of this behavior was unreachable (without risking a crash)
before 81eaaf65e. It seems like a good idea to clean it all up
in the same releases, rather than shipping a non-crashing but
nonetheless visibly buggy behavior in the name of minimal change.
Hence, back-patch.

plperl_array_to_datum() wasn't sufficiently careful about checking

accept inputs such as "[1, []]". This is a bit related to the
PL/Python bug fixed in commit 81eaaf65e, but it doesn't seem to
provide any direct route to a memory stomp. Instead the likely
failure mode is for makeMdArrayResult to be passed fewer Datums than
the claimed array dimensionality requires, possibly leading to a wild

If PLySequence_ToArray came across a zero-length sublist, it'd compute
the overall array size as zero, possibly leading to a memory clobber.
(This would likely qualify as a security bug, were it not that plpython
is an untrusted language already.)
I think there are other corner-case issues in this code as well, notably
that the error messages don't match the core code and for some ranges
of array sizes you'd get "invalid memory alloc request size" rather than
the intended message about array size.
Really this code has no business doing its own array size calculation
at all, so remove the faulty code in favor of using ArrayGetNItems().

CREATE SCHEMA AUTHORIZATION with appended schema elements can lead to
crashes when comparing the schema name of the query with the schemas
used in the qualification of some clauses in the elements' queries.
The origin of the problem is that the transformation routine for the
elements listed in a CREATE SCHEMA query uses as new, expected, schema
name the one listed in CreateSchemaStmt itself. However, depending on
the query, CreateSchemaStmt.schemaname may be NULL, being computed
instead from the role specification of the query given by the
AUTHORIZATION clause, that could be either:
- A user name string, with the new schema name being set to the same
value as the role given.
- Guessed from CURRENT_ROLE, SESSION_ROLE or CURRENT_ROLE, with a new
schema name computed from the security context where CREATE SCHEMA is
running.
Regression tests are added for CREATE SCHEMA with some appended elements
(some of them with schema qualifications), covering also some role
specification patterns.
While on it, this simplifies the context structure used during the
transformation of the elements listed in a CREATE SCHEMA query by
removing the fields for the role specification and the role type. They
were not used, and for the role specification this could be confusing as
the schema name may by extracted from that at the beginning of
CreateSchemaCommand().
This issue exists for a long time, so backpatch down to all the versions
supported.

expressions cached by plancache.c, in place of older code where these
expression trees were managed by plpgsql itself. However, I (tgl)
forgot that we use a separate, shorter-lived cast info hashtable in
DO blocks. The new mechanism thus resulted in session-lifespan
leakage of the plancache data once a DO block containing one or more
casts terminated. To fix, split the cast hash table into two parts,
one that tracks only the plancache's CachedExpressions and one that
tracks the expression state trees generated from them. DO blocks need
their own expression state trees and hence their own version of the
second hash table, but there's no reason they can't share the

The partition pruning logic assumed that "b IS NOT true" was exactly the
same as "b IS FALSE". This is not the case when considering NULL values.
Fix this so we correctly include any partition which could hold NULL
values for the NOT case.
Additionally, this fixes a bug in the partition pruning code which handles
partitioned tables partitioned like ((NOT boolcol)). This is a seemingly
unlikely schema design, and it was untested and also broken.
Here we add tests for the ((NOT boolcol)) case and insert some actual data
into those tables and verify we do get the correct rows back when running
queries. I've also adjusted the existing boolpart tests to include some
data and verify we get the correct results too.
Both the bugs being fixed here could lead to incorrect query results with
fewer rows being returned than expected. No additional rows could have
been returned accidentally.
In passing, remove needless ternary expression. It's more simple just to
pass !is_not_clause to makeBoolConst(). It makes sense to do this so the
code is consistent with the bug fix in the "else if" condition just below.

Our policy since commit ab77a5a45 has been that a plan node having
any initplans is automatically not parallel-safe. (This could be
relaxed, but not today.) clean_up_removed_plan_level neglected
this, and could attach initplans to a parallel-safe child plan
node without clearing the plan's parallel-safe flag. That could
lead to "subplan was not initialized" errors at runtime, in case
an initplan referenced another one and only the referencing one
got transmitted to parallel workers.
The fix in clean_up_removed_plan_level is trivial enough.
materialize_finished_plan also moves initplans from one node
to another, but it's okay because it already copies the source
node's parallel_safe flag. The other place that does this kind
of thing is standard_planner's hack to inject a top-level Gather
when debug_parallel_query is active. But that's actually dead
code given that we're correctly enforcing the "initplans aren't
parallel safe" rule, so just replace it with an Assert that
there are no initplans.
Also improve some related comments.
Normally we'd add a regression test case for this sort of bug.
The mistake itself is already reached by existing tests, but there
is accidentally no visible problem. The only known test case that
creates an actual failure seems too indirect and fragile to justify
keeping it as a regression test (not least because it fails to fail
in v11, though the bug is clearly present there too).

Calling fseek() or ftello() on a handle to a non-seeking device such as
a pipe or a communications device is not supported. Unfortunately,
MSVC's flavor of these routines, _fseeki64() and _ftelli64(), do not
return an error when given a pipe as handle. Some of the logic of
pg_dump and restore relies on these routines to check if a handle is
seekable, causing failures when passing the contents of pg_dump to
pg_restore through a pipe, for example.
This commit introduces wrappers for fseeko() and ftello() on MSVC so as
any callers are able to properly detect the cases of non-seekable
handles. This relies mainly on GetFileType(), sharing a bit of code
with the MSVC port for fstat(). The code in charge of getting a file
type is refactored into a new file called win32common.c, shared by
win32stat.c and the new win32fseek.c. It includes the MSVC ports for
fseeko() and ftello().
Like 765f5df, this is backpatched down to 14, where the fstat()
implementation for MSVC is able to understand about files larger than
4GB in size. Using a TAP test for that is proving to be tricky as
IPC::Run handles the pipes by itself, still I have been able to check
the fix manually.

Similar to 8dff2f224, this disables DNS lookups by the Kerberos library
to look up the KDC and the realm while the Kerberos tests are running.
In some environments, these lookups can take a long time and end up
timing out and causing tests to fail. Further, since this isn't really
our domain, we shouldn't be sending out these DNS requests during our
tests.
In our Kerberos test suite, there isn't much need to worry about the
normal canonicalization that Kerberos provides by looking up the reverse
DNS for the IP address connected to, and in some cases it can actively
cause problems (eg: a captive portal wifi where the normally not
resolvable localhost address used ends up being resolved anyway, and
not to the domain we are using for testing, causing the entire
regression test to fail with errors about not being able to get a TGT
for the remote realm for cross-realm trust).
Therefore, disable it by adding rdns = false into the krb5.conf that's
generated for the test.

tsquery's GETQUERY() macro is only safe to apply to a tsquery
that is known non-empty; otherwise it gives a pointer to garbage.
Before commit 5a617d75d, ts_headline() avoided this pitfall, but
only in a very indirect, nonobvious way. (hlCover could not reach
its TS_execute call, because if the query contains no lexemes
then hlFirstIndex would surely return -1.) After that commit,
it fell into the trap, resulting in weird errors such as
"unrecognized operator" and/or valgrind complaints. In HEAD,
fix this by not calling TS_execute_locations() at all for an
empty query. In the back branches, add a defensive check to
hlCover() --- that's not fixing any live bug, but I judge the
code a bit too fragile as-is.
Also, both mark_hl_fragments() and mark_hl_words() were careless
about the possibility of empty search text: in the cases where
no match has been found, they'd end up telling mark_fragment() to
mark from word indexes 0 to 0 inclusive, even when there is no
word 0. This is harmless since we over-allocated the prs->words
array, but it does annoy valgrind. Fix so that the end index is -1
and thus mark_fragment() will do nothing in such cases.
Bottom line is that this fixes a live bug in HEAD, but in the
back branches it's only getting rid of a valgrind nitpick.

Up through v11 it was sensible to use the "oid" system column as
a foreign key column, but since that was removed there's no visible
usefulness in making any of the remaining system columns a foreign
key. Moreover, since the TupleTableSlot rewrites in v12, such cases
actively fail because of implicit assumptions that only user columns
appear in foreign keys. The lack of complaints about that seems
like good evidence that no one is trying to do it. Hence, rather
than trying to repair those assumptions (of which there are at least
two, maybe more), let's just forbid the case up front.
Per this patch, a system column in either the referenced or
referencing side of a foreign key will draw this error; however,
putting one in the referenced side would have failed later anyway,
since we don't allow unique indexes to be made on system columns.

The memory management here is confusing and could stand to be

The nested-arrays code path in ExecEvalArrayExpr() used palloc to
allocate the result array, whereas every other array-creating function
has used palloc0 since 18c0b4ecc. This mostly works, but unused bits
past the end of the nulls bitmap may end up undefined. That causes
valgrind complaints with -DWRITE_READ_PARSE_PLAN_TREES, and could
cause planner misbehavior as cited in 18c0b4ecc. There seems no very
good reason why we should strive to avoid palloc0 in just this one case,
so fix it the easy way with s/palloc/palloc0/.
While looking at that I noted that we also failed to check for overflow
of "nbytes" and "nitems" while summing the sizes of the sub-arrays,
potentially allowing a crash due to undersized output allocation.
For "nbytes", follow the policy used by other array-munging code of
checking for overflow after each addition. (As elsewhere, the last
addition of the array's overhead space doesn't need an extra check,
since palloc itself will catch a value between 1Gb and 2Gb.)
For "nitems", there's no very good reason to sum the inputs at all,
since we can perfectly well use ArrayGetNItems' result instead of
ignoring it.
Per discussion of this bug, also remove redundant zeroing of the
nulls bitmap in array_set_element and array_set_slice.

Lakhin; thanks also to Richard Guo. These bugs are a dozen years old,

We fail to apply updates and deletes when the REPLICA IDENTITY FULL is
used for the table having generated columns. We didn't use to ignore
generated columns while doing tuple comparison among the tuples from
the publisher and subscriber during apply of updates and deletes.

With unlucky timing and parallel_leader_participation=off (not the
default), PHJ could attempt to access per-batch shared state just as it
was being freed. There was code intended to prevent that by checking
for a cleared pointer, but it was racy. Fix, by introducing an extra
barrier phase. The new phase PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING means that it's safe to
access the per-batch state to find a batch to help with, and
PHJ_BUILD_DONE means that it is too late. The last to detach will free
the array of per-batch state as before, but now it will also atomically
advance the phase, so that late attachers can avoid the hazard. This
mirrors the way per-batch hash tables are freed (see phases
PHJ_BATCH_PROBING and PHJ_BATCH_DONE).
An earlier attempt to fix this (commit 3b8981b6, later reverted) missed
one special case. When the inner side is empty (the "empty inner
optimization), the build barrier would only make it to
PHJ_BUILD_HASHING_INNER phase before workers attempted to detach from
the hashtable. In that case, fast-forward the build barrier to
PHJ_BUILD_RUNNING before proceeding, so that our later assertions hold
and we can still negotiate who is cleaning up.
Revealed by build farm failures, where BarrierAttach() failed a sanity
check assertion, because the memory had been clobbered by dsa_free().
In non-assert builds, the result could be a segmentation fault.

When calculating distance in brin_minmax_multi_distance_inet(), the
netmask was applied incorrectly. This results in (seemingly) incorrect
ordering of values, triggering an assert.
For builds without asserts this is mostly harmless - we may merge other
ranges, possibly resulting in slightly less efficient index. But it's
still correct and the greedy algorithm doesn't guarantee optimality
anyway.
Backpatch to 14, where minmax-multi indexes were introduced.

When probing the Memoize cache to check if the current cache key values
exist in the cache, we perform an evaluation of the expressions making up
the cache key before probing the hash table for those values. This
operation could leak memory as it is possible that the cache key is an
expression which requires allocation of memory, as was the case in bug
17844.
Here we fix this by correctly switching to the per tuple context before
evaluating the cache expressions so that the memory is freed next time the
per tuple context is reset.

Hash partitioning on an enum is problematic because the hash codes are
derived from the OIDs assigned to the enum values, which will almost
certainly be different after a dump-and-reload than they were before.
This means that some rows probably end up in different partitions than
before, causing restore to fail because of partition constraint
violations. (pg_upgrade dodges this problem by using hacks to force
the enum values to keep the same OIDs, but that's not possible nor
desirable for pg_dump.)
Users can work around that by specifying --load-via-partition-root,
but since that's a dump-time not restore-time decision, one might
find out the need for it far too late. Instead, teach pg_dump to
apply that option automatically when dealing with a partitioned
table that has hash-on-enum partitioning.
Also deal with a pre-existing issue for --load-via-partition-root
mode: in a parallel restore, we try to TRUNCATE target tables just
before loading them, in order to enable some backend optimizations.
This is bad when using --load-via-partition-root because (a) we're
likely to suffer deadlocks from restore jobs trying to restore rows
into other partitions than they came from, and (b) if we miss getting
a deadlock we might still lose data due to a TRUNCATE removing rows
from some already-completed restore job.
The fix for this is conceptually simple: just don't TRUNCATE if we're
dealing with a --load-via-partition-root case. The tricky bit is for
pg_restore to identify those cases. In dumps using COPY commands we
can inspect each COPY command to see if it targets the nominal target
table or some ancestor. However, in dumps using INSERT commands it's
pretty impractical to examine the INSERTs in advance. To provide a
solution for that going forward, modify pg_dump to mark TABLE DATA
items that are using --load-via-partition-root with a comment.
(This change also responds to a complaint from Robert Haas that
the dump output for --load-via-partition-root is pretty confusing.)
pg_restore checks for the special comment as well as checking the
COPY command if present. This will fail to identify the combination
of --load-via-partition-root and --inserts in pre-existing dump files,
but that should be a pretty rare case in the field. If it does
happen you will probably get a deadlock failure that you can work
around by not using parallel restore, which is the same as before
this bug fix.
Having done this, there seems no remaining reason for the alarmism
in the pg_dump man page about combining --load-via-partition-root
with parallel restore, so remove that warning.
Patch by me; thanks to Julien Rouhaud for review. Back-patch to
v11 where hash partitioning was introduced.

Unfortunately it turns out that the logfile-only option added in b9f8d1cbad
is only available in openldap starting in 2.6.
Luckily the option to control the log level (loglevel/-s) have been around for
much longer. As it turns out loglevel/-s only control what goes into syslog,
not what ends up in the file specified with 'logfile' and stderr.
While we currently are specifying 'logfile', nothing ends up in it, as the
option only controls debug messages, and we didn't set a debug level. The
debug level can only be configured on the commandline and also prevents
forking. That'd require larger changes, so this commit doesn't tackle that
issue.
Specify the syslog level when starting slapd using -s, as that allows to
prevent all syslog messages if one uses '0' instead of 'none', while loglevel
doesn't prevent the first message.

Until now the tests using slapd spammed syslog for every connection /
query. Use logfile-only to prevent syslog activity. Unfortunately that only
takes effect after logging the first message, but that's still much better
than the prior situation.

Further to commit 6a9229da, checking for NULL is now redundant. An "out

as FATAL, so we can delete a few more lines.

gcc 12+ has complaints like the following:

This is due to a compiler bug:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=104986
It has been a year since the bug has been reported without getting fixed. As
the warnings are verbose and use of gcc 12 is becoming more common, it seems
worth working around the bug. Particularly because a simple reformulation of
the loop condition fixes the issue and isn't any less readable.

A comment was left behind claiming that we needed to use malloc() rather
than palloc() because the corresponding free would run in another

the reason being gone, we might as well actually use palloc().

The current implementation of _pgfstat64() is ineffective in detecting a
terminal handle or an anonymous named pipe. This commit improves our
port of fstat() to detect more efficiently such cases by relying on
GetFileType(), and returning more correct data when the type found is
either a FILE_TYPE_PIPE (_S_IFIFO) or a FILE_TYPE_CHAR (_S_IFCHR).
This is part of a more global fix to address failures when feeding the
output generated by pg_dump to pg_restore through a pipe, for example,
but not all of it. We are also going to need to do something about
fseek() and ftello() which are not reliable on WIN32 for the same cases
where fstat() was incorrect. Fixing fstat() is independent of the rest,
though, which is why both fixes are handled separately, and this is the
first part of it.

Commit 4753ef37 changed vacuum_delay_point() to use the WaitLatch() API,
to fix the problem that vacuum could keep running for a very long time
after the postmaster died.
Unfortunately, that broke commit caf626b2's support for fractional
vacuum_cost_delay, which shipped in PostgreSQL 12. WaitLatch() works in
whole milliseconds.
For now, revert the change from commit 4753ef37, but add an explicit
check for postmaster death. That's an extra system call on systems
other than Linux and FreeBSD, but that overhead doesn't matter much
considering that we willingly went to sleep and woke up again. (In
later work, we might add higher resolution timeouts to the latch API so
that we could do this with our standard programming pattern, but that
wouldn't be back-patched.)
Back-patch to 14, where commit 4753ef37 arrived.
