Obviously, every translation unit should not be declaring this
separately. It needs to be PGDLLIMPORT as well, to avoid breaking
third-party code that uses any of the functions that the commit
mentioned above changed to macros.
A background worker can use pq_redirect_to_shm_mq() to direct protocol
that would normally be sent to the frontend to a shm_mq so that another
process may read them.
The receiving process may use pq_parse_errornotice() to parse an
ErrorResponse or NoticeResponse from the background worker and, if
it wishes, ThrowErrorData() to propagate the error (with or without
further modification).
Patch by me. Review by Andres Freund.
Move the functions within the file so that public interface functions come
first, followed by internal functions. Previously, be_tls_write was first,
then internal stuff, and finally the rest of the public interface, which
clearly didn't make much sense.
Per Andres Freund's complaint.
This refactoring is in preparation for adding support for other SSL
implementations, with no user-visible effects. There are now two #defines,
USE_OPENSSL which is defined when building with OpenSSL, and USE_SSL which
is defined when building with any SSL implementation. Currently, OpenSSL is
the only implementation so the two #defines go together, but USE_SSL is
supposed to be used for implementation-independent code.
The libpq SSL code is changed to use a custom BIO, which does all the raw
I/O, like we've been doing in the backend for a long time. That makes it
possible to use MSG_NOSIGNAL to block SIGPIPE when using SSL, which avoids
a couple of syscall for each send(). Probably doesn't make much performance
difference in practice - the SSL encryption is expensive enough to mask the
effect - but it was a natural result of this refactoring.
Based on a patch by Martijn van Oosterhout from 2006. Briefly reviewed by
Alvaro Herrera, Andreas Karlsson, Jeff Janes.
The previous naming broke the query that libpq's lo_initialize() uses
to collect the OIDs of the server-side functions it requires, because
that query effectively assumes that there is only one function named
lo_create in the pg_catalog schema (and likewise only one lo_open, etc).
While we should certainly make libpq more robust about this, the naive
query will remain in use in the field for the foreseeable future, so it
seems the only workable choice is to use a different name for the new
function. lo_from_bytea() won a small straw poll.
Back-patch into 9.4 where the new function was introduced.
According to the Single Unix Spec and assorted man pages, you're supposed
to use the constants named AF_xxx when setting ai_family for a getaddrinfo
call. In a few places we were using PF_xxx instead. Use of PF_xxx
appears to be an ancient BSD convention that was not adopted by later
standardization. On BSD and most later Unixen, it doesn't matter much
because those constants have equivalent values anyway; but nonetheless
this code is not per spec.
In the same vein, replace PF_INET by AF_INET in one socket() call, which
wasn't even consistent with the other socket() call in the same function
let alone the remainder of our code.
Per investigation of a Cygwin trouble report from Marco Atzeri. It's
probably a long shot that this will fix his issue, but it's wrong in
any case.
Previously, in some places, socket creation errors were checked for
negative values, which is not true for Windows because sockets are
unsigned. This masked socket creation errors on Windows.
Backpatch through 9.0. 8.4 doesn't have the infrastructure to fix this.
The code for matching clients to pg_hba.conf lines that specify host names
(instead of IP address ranges) failed to complain if reverse DNS lookup
failed; instead it silently didn't match, so that you might end up getting
a surprising "no pg_hba.conf entry for ..." error, as seen in bug #9518
from Mike Blackwell. Since we don't want to make this a fatal error in
situations where pg_hba.conf contains a mixture of host names and IP
addresses (clients matching one of the numeric entries should not have to
have rDNS data), remember the lookup failure and mention it as DETAIL if
we get to "no pg_hba.conf entry". Apply the same approach to forward-DNS
lookup failures, too, rather than treating them as immediate hard errors.
Along the way, fix a couple of bugs that prevented us from detecting an
rDNS lookup error reliably, and make sure that we make only one rDNS lookup
attempt; formerly, if the lookup attempt failed, the code would try again
for each host name entry in pg_hba.conf. Since more or less the whole
point of this design is to ensure there's only one lookup attempt not one
per entry, the latter point represents a performance bug that seems
sufficient justification for back-patching.
Also, adjust src/port/getaddrinfo.c so that it plays as well as it can
with this code. Which is not all that well, since it does not have actual
support for rDNS lookup, but at least it should return the expected (and
required by spec) error codes so that the main code correctly perceives the
lack of functionality as a lookup failure. It's unlikely that PG is still
being used in production on any machines that require our getaddrinfo.c,
so I'm not excited about working harder than this.
To keep the code in the various branches similar, this includes
back-patching commits c424d0d105 and
1997f34db4 into 9.2 and earlier.
Back-patch to 9.1 where the facility for hostnames in pg_hba.conf was
introduced.
Commit 613c6d26bd sloppily replaced a
lookup of the UID obtained from getpeereid() with a lookup of the
server's own user name, thus totally destroying peer authentication.
Revert. Per report from Christoph Berg.
In passing, make sure get_user_name() zeroes *errstr on success on
Windows as well as non-Windows. I don't think any callers actually
depend on this ATM, but we should be consistent across platforms.
krb_srvname is actually not available anymore as a parameter server-side, since
with gssapi we accept all principals in our keytab. It's still used in libpq for
client side specification.
In passing remove declaration of krb_server_hostname, where all the functionality
was already removed.

Additional non-security issues/improvements spotted by Coverity.
In backend/libpq, no sense trying to protect against port->hba being
NULL after we've already dereferenced it in the switch() statement.
Prevent against possible overflow due to 32bit arithmitic in
basebackup throttling (not yet released, so no security concern).
Remove nonsensical check of array pointer against NULL in procarray.c,
looks to be a holdover from 9.1 and earlier when there were pointers
being used but now it's just an array.
Remove pointer check-against-NULL in tsearch/spell.c as we had already
dereferenced it above (in the strcmp()).
Remove dead code from adt/orderedsetaggs.c, isnull is checked
immediately after each tuplesort_getdatum() call and if true we return,
so no point checking it again down at the bottom.
Remove recently added minor error-condition memory leak in pg_regress.
A number of issues were identified by the Coverity scanner and are
addressed in this patch. None of these appear to be security issues
and many are mostly cosmetic changes.
Short comments for each of the changes follows.
Correct the semi-colon placement in be-secure.c regarding SSL retries.
Remove a useless comparison-to-NULL in proc.c (value is dereferenced
prior to this check and therefore can't be NULL).
Add checking of chmod() return values to initdb.
Fix a couple minor memory leaks in initdb.
Fix memory leak in pg_ctl- involves free'ing the config file contents.
Use an int to capture fgetc() return instead of an enum in pg_dump.

Explicitly ignore pqFlush return in libpq error-path.
Change PQfnumber() to avoid doing an strdup() when no changes required.

Check rmtree(), malloc() results in pg_regress.
Also check get_alternative_expectfile() return in pg_regress.
Commit 820f08cabd claimed to make the server
and libpq handle SSL protocol versions identically, but actually the server
was still accepting SSL v3 protocol while libpq wasn't. Per discussion,
SSL v3 is obsolete, and there's no good reason to continue to accept it.
So make the code really equivalent on both sides. The behavior now is
that we use the highest mutually-supported TLS protocol version.

It's worth distinguishing these cases from run-of-the-mill wrong-password
problems, since users have been known to waste lots of time pursuing the
wrong theory about what's failing. Now, our longstanding policy about how
to report authentication failures is that we don't really want to tell the
*client* such things, since that might be giving information to a bad guy.
But there's nothing wrong with reporting the details to the postmaster log,
and indeed the comments in this area of the code contemplate that
interesting details should be so reported. We just weren't handling these
particular interesting cases usefully.
To fix, add infrastructure allowing subroutines of ClientAuthentication()
to return a string to be added to the errdetail_log field of the main
authentication-failed error report. We might later want to use this to
report other subcases of authentication failure the same way, but for the
moment I just dealt with password cases.
Per discussion of a patch from Josh Drake, though this is not what
he proposed.
krb5 has been deprecated since 8.3, and the recommended way to do
Kerberos authentication is using the GSSAPI authentication method
(which is still fully supported).
libpq retains the ability to identify krb5 authentication, but only
gives an error message about it being unsupported. Since all authentication
is initiated from the backend, there is no need to keep it at all
in the backend.
Previously, lookups of non-existent user names could return "Success";
it will now return "User does not exist" by resetting errno. This also
centralizes the user name lookup code in libpgport.
Report and analysis by Nicolas Marchildon; patch by me
This sets up ECDH key exchange, when compiling against OpenSSL that
supports EC. Then the ECDHE-RSA and ECDHE-ECDSA cipher suites can be
used for SSL connections. The latter one means that EC keys are now
usable.
The reason for EC key exchange is that it's faster than DHE and it
allows to go to higher security levels where RSA will be horribly slow.
There is also new GUC option ssl_ecdh_curve that specifies the curve
name used for ECDH. It defaults to "prime256v1", which is the most
common curve in use in HTTPS.

By default, OpenSSL (and SSL/TLS in general) lets the client cipher
order take priority. This is OK for browsers where the ciphers were
tuned, but few PostgreSQL client libraries make the cipher order
configurable. So it makes sense to have the cipher order in
postgresql.conf take priority over client defaults.
This patch adds the setting "ssl_prefer_server_ciphers" that can be
turned on so that server cipher order is preferred. Per discussion,
this now defaults to on.

Current OpenSSL code includes a BIO_clear_retry_flags() step in the
sock_write() function. Either we failed to copy the code correctly, or
they added this since we copied it. In any case, lack of the clear step
appears to be the cause of the server lockup after connection loss reported
in bug #8647 from Valentine Gogichashvili. Assume that this is correct
coding for all OpenSSL versions, and hence back-patch to all supported
branches.
Diagnosis and patch by Alexander Kukushkin.
These functions must be careful that they return the intended value of
errno to their callers. There were several scenarios where this might
not happen:
1. The recent SSL renegotiation patch added a hunk of code that would
execute after setting errno. In the first place, it's doubtful that we
should consider renegotiation to be successfully completed after a failure,
and in the second, there's no real guarantee that the called OpenSSL
routines wouldn't clobber errno. Fix by not executing that hunk except
during success exit.
2. errno was left in an unknown state in case of an unrecognized return
code from SSL_get_error(). While this is a "can't happen" case, it seems
like a good idea to be sure we know what would happen, so reset errno to
ECONNRESET in such cases. (The corresponding code in libpq's fe-secure.c
already did this.)
3. There was an (undocumented) assumption that client_read_ended() wouldn't
change errno. While true in the current state of the code, this seems less
than future-proof. Add explicit saving/restoring of errno to make sure
that changes in the called functions won't break things.
I see no need to back-patch, since #1 is new code and the other two issues
are mostly hypothetical.

asprintf(), aside from not being particularly portable, has a fundamentally
badly-designed API; the psprintf() function that was added in passing in
the previous patch has a much better API choice. Moreover, the NetBSD
implementation that was borrowed for the previous patch doesn't work with
non-C99-compliant vsnprintf, which is something we still have to cope with
on some platforms; and it depends on va_copy which isn't all that portable
either. Get rid of that code in favor of an implementation similar to what
we've used for many years in stringinfo.c. Also, move it into libpgcommon
since it's not really libpgport material.
I think this patch will be enough to turn the buildfarm green again, but
there's still cosmetic work left to do, namely get rid of pg_asprintf()
in favor of using psprintf(). That will come in a followon patch.
Add asprintf(), pg_asprintf(), and psprintf() to simplify string
allocation and composition. Replacement implementations taken from

The existing renegotiation code was home for several bugs: it might
erroneously report that renegotiation had failed; it might try to
execute another renegotiation while the previous one was pending; it
failed to terminate the connection if the renegotiation never actually
took place; if a renegotiation was started, the byte count was reset,
even if the renegotiation wasn't completed (this isn't good from a
security perspective because it means continuing to use a session that
should be considered compromised due to volume of data transferred.)
The new code is structured to avoid these pitfalls: renegotiation is
started a little earlier than the limit has expired; the handshake
sequence is retried until it has actually returned successfully, and no
more than that, but if it fails too many times, the connection is
closed. The byte count is reset only when the renegotiation has
succeeded, and if the renegotiation byte count limit expires, the
connection is terminated.
This commit only touches the master branch, because some of the changes
are controversial. If everything goes well, a back-patch might be
considered.

We had two copies of this function in the backend and libpq, which was
already pretty bogus, but it turns out that we need it in some other
programs that don't use libpq (such as pg_test_fsync). So put it where
it probably should have been all along. The signal-mask-initialization
support in src/backend/libpq/pqsignal.c stays where it is, though, since
we only need that in the backend.
Instead of just reporting which user failed to log in, log both the
line number in the active pg_hba.conf file (which may not match reality
in case the file has been edited and not reloaded) and the contents of
the matching line (which will always be correct), to make it easier
to debug incorrect pg_hba.conf files.
The message to the client remains unchanged and does not include this
information, to prevent leaking security sensitive information.

The length of a socket path name is constrained by the size of struct
sockaddr_un, and there's not a lot we can do about it since that is a
kernel API. However, it would be a good thing if we produced an
intelligible error message when the user specifies a socket path that's too
long --- and getaddrinfo's standard API is too impoverished to do this in
the natural way. So insert explicit tests at the places where we construct
a socket path name. Now you'll get an error that makes sense and even
tells you what the limit is, rather than something generic like
"Non-recoverable failure in name resolution".
Per trouble report from Jeremy Drake and a fix idea from Andrew Dunstan.
Files opened with BasicOpenFile or PathNameOpenFile are not automatically
cleaned up on error. That puts unnecessary burden on callers that only want
to keep the file open for a short time. There is AllocateFile, but that
returns a buffered FILE * stream, which in many cases is not the nicest API
to work with. So add function called OpenTransientFile, which returns a
unbuffered fd that's cleaned up like the FILE* returned by AllocateFile().
This plugs a few rare fd leaks in error cases:
1. copy_file() - fixed by by using OpenTransientFile instead of BasicOpenFile
2. XLogFileInit() - fixed by adding close() calls to the error cases. Can't
use OpenTransientFile here because the fd is supposed to persist over
transaction boundaries.
3. lo_import/lo_export - fixed by using OpenTransientFile instead of
PathNameOpenFile.
In addition to plugging those leaks, this replaces many BasicOpenFile() calls
with OpenTransientFile() that were not leaking, because the code meticulously
closed the file on error. That wasn't strictly necessary, but IMHO it's good
for robustness.
The same leaks exist in older versions, but given the rarity of the issues,
I'm not backpatching this. Not yet, anyway - it might be good to backpatch
later, after this mechanism has had some more testing in master branch.
Do read/write permissions checks at most once per large object descriptor,
not once per lo_read or lo_write call as before. The repeated tests were
quite useless in the read case since the snapshot-based tests were
guaranteed to produce the same answer every time. In the write case,
the extra tests could in principle detect revocation of write privileges
after a series of writes has started --- but there's a race condition there
anyway, since we'd check privileges before performing and certainly before
committing the write. So there's no real advantage to checking every
single time, and we might as well redefine it as "only check the first
time".
On the same reasoning, remove the LargeObjectExists checks in inv_write
and inv_truncate. We already checked existence when the descriptor was
opened, and checking again doesn't provide any real increment of safety
that would justify the cost.
