After finding an "=" character, the pointer was advanced twice when it
should only advance once. This is harmless as long as the value after "="
has at least one character; but if it doesn't, we'd miss the terminator
character and include too much in the value.
In principle this could lead to reading off the end of memory. It does not
seem worth treating as a security issue though, because it would happen on
client side, and besides client logic that's taking conninfo strings from
untrusted sources has much worse security problems than this.

All the other new SSL information functions had dummy versions in
be-secure.c, but I missed PQsslAttributes(). Oops. Surprisingly, the linker
did not complain about the missing function on most platforms represented in
the buildfarm, even though it is exported, except for a few Windows systems.
This makes it possible to query for things like the SSL version and cipher
used, without depending on OpenSSL functions or macros. That is a good
thing if we ever get another SSL implementation.
PQgetssl() still works, but it should be considered as deprecated as it
only works with OpenSSL. In particular, PQgetSslInUse() should be used to
check if a connection uses SSL, because as soon as we have another
implementation, PQgetssl() will return NULL even if SSL is in use.
strncpy() has a well-deserved reputation for being unsafe, so make an
effort to get rid of nearly all occurrences in HEAD.
A large fraction of the remaining uses were passing length less than or
equal to the known strlen() of the source, in which case no null-padding
can occur and the behavior is equivalent to memcpy(), though doubtless
slower and certainly harder to reason about. So just use memcpy() in
these cases.
In other cases, use either StrNCpy() or strlcpy() as appropriate (depending
on whether padding to the full length of the destination buffer seems
useful).
I left a few strncpy() calls alone in the src/timezone/ code, to keep it
in sync with upstream (the IANA tzcode distribution). There are also a
few such calls in ecpg that could possibly do with more analysis.
AFAICT, none of these changes are more than cosmetic, except for the four
occurrences in fe-secure-openssl.c, which are in fact buggy: an overlength
source leads to a non-null-terminated destination buffer and ensuing
misbehavior. These don't seem like security issues, first because no stack
clobber is possible and second because if your values of sslcert etc are
coming from untrusted sources then you've got problems way worse than this.
Still, it's undesirable to have unpredictable behavior for overlength
inputs, so back-patch those four changes to all active branches.
Some users run their applications in chroot environments that lack an
/etc/passwd file. This means that the current UID's user name and home
directory are not obtainable. libpq used to be all right with that,
so long as the database role name to use was specified explicitly.
But commit a4c8f14364 broke such cases by
causing any failure of pg_fe_getauthname() to be treated as a hard error.
In any case it did little to advance its nominal goal of causing errors
in pg_fe_getauthname() to be reported better. So revert that and instead
put some real error-reporting code in place. This requires changes to the
APIs of pg_fe_getauthname() and pqGetpwuid(), since the latter had
departed from the POSIX-specified API of getpwuid_r() in a way that made
it impossible to distinguish actual lookup errors from "no such user".
To allow such failures to be reported, while not failing if the caller
supplies a role name, add a second call of pg_fe_getauthname() in
connectOptions2(). This is a tad ugly, and could perhaps be avoided with
some refactoring of PQsetdbLogin(), but I'll leave that idea for later.
(Note that the complained-of misbehavior only occurs in PQsetdbLogin,
not when using the PQconnect functions, because in the latter we will
never bother to call pg_fe_getauthname() if the user gives a role name.)
In passing also clean up the Windows-side usage of GetUserName(): the
recommended buffer size is 257 bytes, the passed buffer length should
be the buffer size not buffer size less 1, and any error is reported
by GetLastError() not errno.
Per report from Christoph Berg. Back-patch to 9.4 where the chroot
failure case was introduced. The generally poor reporting of errors
here is of very long standing, of course, but given the lack of field
complaints about it we won't risk changing these APIs further back
(even though they're theoretically internal to libpq).
Coverity complained that the "else" added to fillPGconn() was unreachable,
which it was. Remove the dead code. In passing, rearrange the tests so as
not to bother trying to fetch values for options that can't be assigned.
Pre-9.3 did not have that issue, but it did have a "return" that should be
"goto oom_error" to ensure that a suitable error message gets filled in.
This reverts commit 9f80f4835a. The

change that way. Back-patch to 9.4, where that commit first appeared.
If the "dbname" attribute in PQconnectDBParams contained a connection string
or URI (and expand_dbname = TRUE), the database name from the connection
string could not be overridden by a subsequent "dbname" keyword in the
array. That was not intentional; all other options can be overridden.
Furthermore, any subsequent "dbname" caused the connection string from the
first dbname value to be processed again, overriding any values for the same
options that were given between the connection string and the second dbname
option.
In the passing, clarify in the docs that only the first dbname option in the
array is parsed as a connection string.

Cygwin builds require this of dependencies pertaining to pattern rules.
On Cygwin, stat("foo") in the absence of a file with that exact name can

Therefore, a pattern rule dependency should match any underlying file

If you call PQreset() repeatedly, and the connection cannot be

The EOF-detection logic in pqReadData was a bit confused about who should
set up the error message in case the kernel gives us read-ready-but-no-data
rather than ECONNRESET or some other explicit error condition. Since the
whole point of this situation is that the lower-level functions don't know
there's anything wrong, pqReadData itself must set up the message. But
keep the assumption that if an errno was reported, a message was set up at
lower levels.

This improves consistency with the MSVC build. On buildfarm member
narwhal, since commit 846e91e022,
shfolder.dll:SHGetFolderPath() crashes when dblink calls it by way of

partial revert of commit 889f038129, which
adopted shfolder.dll for Windows NT 4.0 compatibility. PostgreSQL 8.2
dropped support for that operating system.
Up to now, PG has assumed that any given timezone abbreviation (such as
"EDT") represents a constant GMT offset in the usage of any particular
region; we had a way to configure what that offset was, but not for it
to be changeable over time. But, as with most things horological, this
view of the world is too simplistic: there are numerous regions that have
at one time or another switched to a different GMT offset but kept using
the same timezone abbreviation. Almost the entire Russian Federation did
that a few years ago, and later this month they're going to do it again.
And there are similar examples all over the world.
To cope with this, invent the notion of a "dynamic timezone abbreviation",
which is one that is referenced to a particular underlying timezone
(as defined in the IANA timezone database) and means whatever it currently
means in that zone. For zones that use or have used daylight-savings time,
the standard and DST abbreviations continue to have the property that you
can specify standard or DST time and get that time offset whether or not
DST was theoretically in effect at the time. However, the abbreviations
mean what they meant at the time in question (or most recently before that
time) rather than being absolutely fixed.
The standard abbreviation-list files have been changed to use this behavior
for abbreviations that have actually varied in meaning since 1970. The
old simple-numeric definitions are kept for abbreviations that have not
changed, since they are a bit faster to resolve.
While this is clearly a new feature, it seems necessary to back-patch it
into all active branches, because otherwise use of Russian zone
abbreviations is going to become even more problematic than it already was.
This change supersedes the changes in commit 513d06ded et al to modify the
fixed meanings of the Russian abbreviations; since we've not shipped that
yet, this will avoid an undesirably incompatible (not to mention incorrect)
change in behavior for timestamps between 2011 and 2014.
This patch makes some cosmetic changes in ecpglib to keep its usage of
datetime lookup tables as similar as possible to the backend code, but
doesn't do anything about the increasingly obsolete set of timezone
abbreviation definitions that are hard-wired into ecpglib. Whatever we
do about that will likely not be appropriate material for back-patching.
Also, a potential free() of a garbage pointer after an out-of-memory
failure in ecpglib has been fixed.
This patch also fixes pre-existing bugs in DetermineTimeZoneOffset() that
caused it to produce unexpected results near a timezone transition, if
both the "before" and "after" states are marked as standard time. We'd
only ever thought about or tested transitions between standard and DST
time, but that's not what's happening when a zone simply redefines their
base GMT offset.
In passing, update the SGML documentation to refer to the Olson/zoneinfo/
zic timezone database as the "IANA" database, since it's now being
maintained under the auspices of IANA.
The code wrote a value into the caller's field[] array before checking
to see if there was room, which of course is backwards. Per report from
Michael Paquier.
I fixed the equivalent bug in the backend's version of this code way back
in 630684d3a1, but failed to think about ecpg's copy. Fortunately
this doesn't look like it would be exploitable for anything worse than a
core dump: an external attacker would have no control over the single word
that gets written.
The RFCs say that the CN must not be checked if a subjectAltName extension
of type dNSName is present. IOW, if subjectAltName extension is present,
but there are no dNSNames, we can still check the CN.
Alexey Klyukin
This patch makes libpq check the server's hostname against DNS names listed
in the X509 subjectAltName extension field in the server certificate. This
allows the same certificate to be used for multiple domain names. If there
are no SANs in the certificate, the Common Name field is used, like before
this patch. If both are given, the Common Name is ignored. That is a bit
surprising, but that's the behavior mandated by the relevant RFCs, and it's
also what the common web browsers do.
This also adds a libpq_ngettext helper macro to allow plural messages to be
translated in libpq. Apparently this happened to be the first plural message
in libpq, so it was not needed before.

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.

Alvaro Herrera, Andreas Karlsson, Jeff Janes.
Based on the old comment, it took me a while to figure out what the

It turns out that the %name-prefix syntax without "=" does not work

If the server sends a long stream of data, and the server + network are
consistently fast enough to force the recv() loop in pqReadData() to
iterate until libpq's input buffer is full, then upon processing the last
incomplete message in each bufferload we'd usually double the buffer size,
due to supposing that we didn't have enough room in the buffer to finish
collecting that message. After filling the newly-enlarged buffer, the
cycle repeats, eventually resulting in an out-of-memory situation (which
would be reported misleadingly as "lost synchronization with server").
Of course, we should not enlarge the buffer unless we still need room
after discarding already-processed messages.
This bug dates back quite a long time: pqParseInput3 has had the behavior
since perhaps 2003, getCopyDataMessage at least since commit 70066eb1a1
in 2008. Probably the reason it's not been isolated before is that in
common environments the recv() loop would always be faster than the server
(if on the same machine) or faster than the network (if not); or at least
it wouldn't be slower consistently enough to let the buffer ramp up to a
problematic size. The reported cases involve Windows, which perhaps has
different timing behavior than other platforms.

When array of char * was used as target for a FETCH statement returning more

It's easy to forget using SYSTEMQUOTEs when constructing command strings
for system() or popen(). Even if we fix all the places missing it now, it is
bound to be forgotten again in the future. Introduce wrapper functions that
do the the extra quoting for you, and get rid of SYSTEMQUOTEs in all the
callers.
We previosly used SYSTEMQUOTEs in all the hard-coded command strings, and
this doesn't change the behavior of those. But user-supplied commands, like
archive_command, restore_command, COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM calls, as well as
pgbench's \shell, will now gain an extra pair of quotes. That is desirable,
but if you have existing scripts or config files that include an extra
pair of quotes, those might need to be adjusted.

Coverity identified a number of places in which it couldn't prove that a
string being copied into a fixed-size buffer would fit. We believe that
most, perhaps all of these are in fact safe, or are copying data that is

issue. Nonetheless it seems prudent to forestall any risk by using
strlcpy() and similar functions.

The main practical case in which this could be an issue is if libc is

I included it in this commit to avoid last-minute merge issues.

Security: CVE-2014-0065 for buffer overruns, CVE-2014-0066 for crypt()
Many server functions use the MAXDATELEN constant to size a buffer for
parsing or displaying a datetime value. It was much too small for the
longest possible interval output and slightly too small for certain
valid timestamp input, particularly input with a long timezone name.
The long input was rejected needlessly; the long output caused
interval_out() to overrun its buffer. ECPG's pgtypes library has a copy
of the vulnerable functions, which bore the same vulnerabilities along
with some of its own. In contrast to the server, certain long inputs
caused stack overflow rather than failing cleanly. Back-patch to 8.4

Security: CVE-2014-0063
In pqSendSome, if the connection is already closed at entry, discard any
queued output data before returning. There is no possibility of ever
sending the data, and anyway this corresponds to what we'd do if we'd
detected a hard error while trying to send(). This avoids possible
indefinite bloat of the output buffer if the application keeps trying
to send data (or even just keeps trying to do PQputCopyEnd, as psql
indeed will).
Because PQputCopyEnd won't transition out of PGASYNC_COPY_IN state
until it's successfully queued the COPY END message, and pqPutMsgEnd
doesn't distinguish a queuing failure from a pqSendSome failure,
this omission allowed an infinite loop in psql if the connection closure
occurred when we had at least 8K queued to send. It might be worth
refactoring so that we can make that distinction, but for the moment
the other changes made here seem to offer adequate defenses.
To guard against other variants of this scenario, do not allow
PQgetResult to return a PGRES_COPY_XXX result if the connection is
already known dead. Make sure it returns PGRES_FATAL_ERROR instead.

There was a bug in the psql's meta command \conninfo. When the
IP address was specified in the hostaddr and psql used it to create
a connection (i.e., psql -d "hostaddr=xxx"), \conninfo could not
display that address. This is because \conninfo got the connection
information only from PQhost() which could not return hostaddr.
This patch adds PQhostaddr(), and changes \conninfo so that it
can display not only the host name that PQhost() returns but also
the IP address which PQhostaddr() returns.
The bug has existed since 9.1 where \conninfo was introduced.
But it's too late to add new libpq function into the released versions,
so no backpatch.
In the platform that doesn't support Unix-domain socket, when
neither host nor hostaddr are specified, the default host
'localhost' is used to connect to the server and PQhost() must
return that, but it didn't. This patch fixes PQhost() so that
it returns the default host in that case.

When using a C99-compliant vsnprintf, we can use its report of the required
buffer size to avoid making multiple loops through the formatting logic.
This is similar to the changes recently made in stringinfo.c, but we can't
use psprintf.c here because in libpq we don't want to exit() on error.
(The behavior pqexpbuffer.c has historically used is to mark the
PQExpBuffer as "broken", ie empty, if it runs into any fatal problem.)
To avoid duplicating code more than necessary, I refactored
printfPQExpBuffer and appendPQExpBuffer to share a subroutine that's
very similar to psprintf.c's pvsnprintf in spirit.
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.
Now that msgfmt is run with -c by default, older versions of gettext are
complaining about the PO headers Last-Translator and Language-Team
still having their default values. Newer gettext versions fail to catch
this because of a bug (https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?40261), which is
why this hasn't been noticed before.
Copy updated versions of affected translation files from the
pgtranslations repository, were those files have been fixed.
Add asprintf(), pg_asprintf(), and psprintf() to simplify string
allocation and composition. Replacement implementations taken from
NetBSD.

In libpq, we set up and pass to OpenSSL callback routines to handle
locking. When we run out of SSL connections, we try to clean things
up by de-registering the hooks. Unfortunately, we had a few calls
into the OpenSSL library after these hooks were de-registered during
SSL cleanup which lead to deadlocking. This moves the thread callback
cleanup to be after all SSL-cleanup related OpenSSL library calls.
I've been unable to reproduce the deadlock with this fix.
In passing, also move the close_SSL call to be after unlocking our
ssl_config mutex when in a failure state. While it looks pretty
unlikely to be an issue, it could have resulted in deadlocks if we
ended up in this code path due to something other than SSL_new
failing. Thanks to Heikki for pointing this out.
Back-patch to all supported versions; note that the close_SSL issue
only goes back to 9.0, so that hunk isn't included in the 8.4 patch.
Initially found and reported by Vesa-Matti J Kari; many thanks to
both Heikki and Andres for their help running down the specific
issue and reviewing the patch.
We should really be reporting a useful error along with returning
a valid return code if pthread_mutex_lock() throws an error for
some reason. Add that and back-patch to 9.0 as the prior patch.

I've been working with Nick Phillips on an issue he ran into when
trying to use threads with SSL client certificates. As it turns out,
the call in initialize_SSL() to SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()
will modify our SSL_context without any protection from other threads
also calling that function or being at some other point and trying to
read from SSL_context.
To protect against this, I've written up the attached (based on an
initial patch from Nick and much subsequent discussion) which puts
locks around SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() and all of the other
users of SSL_context which weren't already protected.

Back-patch to 9.0 where we started loading the cert directly instead of
using a callback.
PGTYPEStimestamp_defmt_scan() was declared twice inside different .c
files, with slightly different prototypes. Move it into a header file
and correct the prototype.
On Unix-ish platforms, EWOULDBLOCK may be the same as EAGAIN, which is
*not* a success return, at least not on Linux. We need to treat it as a
failure to avoid giving a misleading error message. Per the Single Unix
Spec, only EINPROGRESS and EINTR returns indicate that the connection
attempt is in progress.
On Windows, on the other hand, EWOULDBLOCK (WSAEWOULDBLOCK) is the expected
case. We must accept EINPROGRESS as well because Cygwin will return that,
and it doesn't seem worth distinguishing Cygwin from native Windows here.
It's not very clear whether EINTR can occur on Windows, but let's leave
that part of the logic alone in the absence of concrete trouble reports.
Also, remove the test for errno == 0, effectively reverting commit
da9501bddb, which AFAICS was just a thinko;
or at best it might have been a workaround for a platform-specific bug,
which we can hope is gone now thirteen years later. In any case, since
libpq makes no effort to reset errno to zero before calling connect(),
it seems unlikely that that test has ever reliably done anything useful.

Make slightly better decisions about indentation than what pgindent
is capable of. Mostly breaking out long function calls into one
line per argument, with a few other minor adjustments.
No functional changes- all whitespace.
pgindent ran cleanly (didn't change anything) after.
Passes all regressions.
Previously, libpq and the backend had opposite ideas about whether
it was necessary for the client to send a CopyDone message after
receiving an ErrorResponse, making it impossible to cleanly exit
COPY BOTH mode. Fix libpq so that works correctly, adopting the
backend's notion that an ErrorResponse kills the copy in both
directions.
Adjust receivelog.c to avoid a degradation in the quality of the
resulting error messages. libpqwalreceiver.c is already doing
the right thing, so no adjustment needed there.
Add an explicit statement to the documentation explaining how
this part of the protocol is supposed to work, in the hopes of
avoiding future confusion in this area.
Since the consequences of all this confusion are very limited,
especially in the back-branches where no client ever attempts
to exit COPY BOTH mode without closing the connection entirely,
no back-patch.
There's probably no real bug here at present, so not backpatching.
But it seems good to make these bits consistent with the rest of
libpq, so as to avoid future surprises.
Patch by me. Review by Tom Lane.
In most cases, these were just references to the SQL standard in
general. In a few cases, a contrast was made between SQL92 and later
standards -- those have been kept unchanged.
This reverts commit 3780fc679c.
HP-UX didn't like it. There would probably be a way to fix that, but
since the net effect of all of this is zero because ecpg ends up using
libpq anyway, it's not worth bothering further.
This will hopefully be easier to use than pg_config for users who are
already used to the pkg-config interface. It also works better for
multi-arch installations.

It doesn't actually use libpq. But we need to keep libpq in the
CPPFLAGS for building, because compatlib uses ecpglib.h which uses
libpq-fe.h, but we don't need to refer to libpq for linking.

In some parallel make situations, the install-headers target could be
called before the installation directories are created by installdirs,
causing the installation to fail. Fix that by making install-headers
depend on installdirs.
We need this in non-ENABLE_THREAD_SAFETY builds, and also to satisfy
the exports.txt entry; while it might be a good idea to remove the
latter, I'm hesitant to do so except in the context of an intentional
ABI break. At least we don't have a separately maintained source file
for it anymore.
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.
I fixed this code back in commit 841b4a2d5, but didn't think carefully
enough about the behavior near zero, which meant it improperly rejected
1999-12-31 24:00:00. Per report from Magnus Hagander.
This includes backend "COPY TO/FROM PROGRAM '...'" syntax, and corresponding
psql \copy syntax. Like with reading/writing files, the backend version is
superuser-only, and in the psql version, the program is run in the client.
In the passing, the psql \copy STDIN/STDOUT syntax is subtly changed: if you
the stdin/stdout is quoted, it's now interpreted as a filename. For example,
"\copy foo from 'stdin'" now reads from a file called 'stdin', not from
standard input. Before this, there was no way to specify a filename called
stdin, stdout, pstdin or pstdout.
This creates a new function in pgport, wait_result_to_str(), which can
be used to convert the exit status of a process, as returned by wait(3),
to a human-readable string.

The backend grammar treats STDIN and STDOUT completely interchangeable, so
that the above accepted. Arguably that was a mistake the backend grammar,
but it's not ecpg's business to second guess that.
