Peter Eisentraut 5925e55498 Add gen_random_uuid function
This adds a built-in function to generate UUIDs.

PostgreSQL hasn't had a built-in function to generate a UUID yet,
relying on external modules such as uuid-ossp and pgcrypto to provide
one.  Now that we have a strong random number generator built-in, we
can easily provide a version 4 (random) UUID generation function.

This patch takes the existing function gen_random_uuid() from pgcrypto
and makes it a built-in function.  The pgcrypto implementation now
internally redirects to the built-in one.

Michael Paquier 1707a0d2aa Remove configure switch --disable-strong-random
This removes a portion of infrastructure introduced by fe0a0b5 to allow
compilation of Postgres in environments where no strong random source is
available, meaning that there is no linking to OpenSSL and no
/dev/urandom (Windows having its own CryptoAPI).  No systems shipped
this century lack /dev/urandom, and the buildfarm is actually not
testing this switch at all, so just remove it.  This simplifies
particularly some backend code which included a fallback implementation
using shared memory, and removes a set of alternate regression output
files from pgcrypto.

Tom Lane c87cb5f7a6 Allow btree comparison functions to return INT_MIN.
Historically we forbade datatype-specific comparison functions from
returning INT_MIN, so that it would be safe to invert the sort order
just by negating the comparison result.  However, this was never
really safe for comparison functions that directly return the result
of memcmp(), strcmp(), etc, as POSIX doesn't place any such restriction
on those library functions.  Buildfarm results show that at least on
recent Linux on s390x, memcmp() actually does return INT_MIN sometimes,
causing sort failures.

The agreed-on answer is to remove this restriction and fix relevant
call sites to not make such an assumption; code such as "res = -res"
should be replaced by "INVERT_COMPARE_RESULT(res)".  The same is needed
in a few places that just directly negated the result of memcmp or
strcmp.

To help find places having this problem, I've also added a compile option
to nbtcompare.c that causes some of the commonly used comparators to
return INT_MIN/INT_MAX instead of their usual -1/+1.  It'd likely be
a good idea to have at least one buildfarm member running with
"-DSTRESS_SORT_INT_MIN".  That's far from a complete test of course,
but it should help to prevent fresh introductions of such bugs.

This is a longstanding portability hazard, so back-patch to all supported
branches.

Re-word the error message you get with --disable-strong-random. It is also

Tom Lane 382ceffdf7 Phase 3 of pgindent updates.
Don't move parenthesized lines to the left, even if that means they
flow past the right margin.

By default, BSD indent lines up statement continuation lines that are
within parentheses so that they start just to the right of the preceding
left parenthesis.  However, traditionally, if that resulted in the
continuation line extending to the right of the desired right margin,
then indent would push it left just far enough to not overrun the margin,
if it could do so without making the continuation line start to the left of
the current statement indent.  That makes for a weird mix of indentations
unless one has been completely rigid about never violating the 80-column
limit.

This behavior has been pretty universally panned by Postgres developers.
Hence, disable it with indent's new -lpl switch, so that parenthesized
lines are always lined up with the preceding left paren.

This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Tom Lane c7b8998ebb Phase 2 of pgindent updates.
Change pg_bsd_indent to follow upstream rules for placement of comments
to the right of code, and remove pgindent hack that caused comments
following #endif to not obey the general rule.

Commit e3860ffa4d wasn't actually using
the published version of pg_bsd_indent, but a hacked-up version that
tried to minimize the amount of movement of comments to the right of
code.  The situation of interest is where such a comment has to be
moved to the right of its default placement at column 33 because there's
code there.  BSD indent has always moved right in units of tab stops
in such cases --- but in the previous incarnation, indent was working
in 8-space tab stops, while now it knows we use 4-space tabs.  So the
net result is that in about half the cases, such comments are placed
one tab stop left of before.  This is better all around: it leaves
more room on the line for comment text, and it means that in such
cases the comment uniformly starts at the next 4-space tab stop after
the code, rather than sometimes one and sometimes two tabs after.

Also, ensure that comments following #endif are indented the same
as comments following other preprocessor commands such as #else.
That inconsistency turns out to have been self-inflicted damage
from a poorly-thought-through post-indent "fixup" in pgindent.

This patch is much less interesting than the first round of indent
changes, but also bulkier, so I thought it best to separate the effects.

Tom Lane e3860ffa4d Initial pgindent run with pg_bsd_indent version 2.0.
The new indent version includes numerous fixes thanks to Piotr Stefaniak.
The main changes visible in this commit are:

* Nicer formatting of function-pointer declarations.
* No longer unexpectedly removes spaces in expressions using casts,
  sizeof, or offsetof.
* No longer wants to add a space in "struct structname *varname", as
  well as some similar cases for const- or volatile-qualified pointers.
* Declarations using PG_USED_FOR_ASSERTS_ONLY are formatted more nicely.
* Fixes bug where comments following declarations were sometimes placed
  with no space separating them from the code.
* Fixes some odd decisions for comments following case labels.
* Fixes some cases where comments following code were indented to less
  than the expected column 33.

On the less good side, it now tends to put more whitespace around typedef
names that are not listed in typedefs.list.  This might encourage us to
put more effort into typedef name collection; it's not really a bug in
indent itself.

There are more changes coming after this round, having to do with comment
indentation and alignment of lines appearing within parentheses.  I wanted
to limit the size of the diffs to something that could be reviewed without
one's eyes completely glazing over, so it seemed better to split up the
changes as much as practical.

Noah Misch 3a0d473192 Use wrappers of PG_DETOAST_DATUM_PACKED() more.
This makes almost all core code follow the policy introduced in the
previous commit.  Specific decisions:

- Text search support functions with char* and length arguments, such as
  prsstart and lexize, may receive unaligned strings.  I doubt
  maintainers of non-core text search code will notice.

- Use plain VARDATA() on values detoasted or synthesized earlier in the
  same function.  Use VARDATA_ANY() on varlenas sourced outside the
  function, even if they happen to always have four-byte headers.  As an
  exception, retain the universal practice of using VARDATA() on return
  values of SendFunctionCall().

- Retain PG_GETARG_BYTEA_P() in pageinspect.  (Page images are too large
  for a one-byte header, so this misses no optimization.)  Sites that do
  not call get_page_from_raw() typically need the four-byte alignment.

- For now, do not change btree_gist.  Its use of four-byte headers in
  memory is partly entangled with storage of 4-byte headers inside
  GBT_VARKEY, on disk.

- For now, do not change gtrgm_consistent() or gtrgm_distance().  They
  incorporate the varlena header into a cache, and there are multiple
  credible implementation strategies to consider.

Heikki Linnakangas 818fd4a67d Support SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication (RFC 5802 and 7677).
This introduces a new generic SASL authentication method, similar to the
GSS and SSPI methods. The server first tells the client which SASL
authentication mechanism to use, and then the mechanism-specific SASL
messages are exchanged in AuthenticationSASLcontinue and PasswordMessage
messages. Only SCRAM-SHA-256 is supported at the moment, but this allows
adding more SASL mechanisms in the future, without changing the overall
protocol.

Support for channel binding, aka SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS is left for later.

The SASLPrep algorithm, for pre-processing the password, is not yet
implemented. That could cause trouble, if you use a password with
non-ASCII characters, and a client library that does implement SASLprep.
That will hopefully be added later.

Authorization identities, as specified in the SCRAM-SHA-256 specification,
are ignored. SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION provides more or less the same
functionality, anyway.

If a user doesn't exist, perform a "mock" authentication, by constructing
an authentic-looking challenge on the fly. The challenge is derived from
a new system-wide random value, "mock authentication nonce", which is
created at initdb, and stored in the control file. We go through these
motions, in order to not give away the information on whether the user
exists, to unauthenticated users.

Bumps PG_CONTROL_VERSION, because of the new field in control file.

Heikki Linnakangas fe0a0b5993 Replace PostmasterRandom() with a stronger source, second attempt.
This adds a new routine, pg_strong_random() for generating random bytes,
for use in both frontend and backend. At the moment, it's only used in
the backend, but the upcoming SCRAM authentication patches need strong
random numbers in libpq as well.

pg_strong_random() is based on, and replaces, the existing implementation
in pgcrypto. It can acquire strong random numbers from a number of sources,
depending on what's available:

- OpenSSL RAND_bytes(), if built with OpenSSL
- On Windows, the native cryptographic functions are used
- /dev/urandom

Unlike the current pgcrypto function, the source is chosen by configure.
That makes it easier to test different implementations, and ensures that
we don't accidentally fall back to a less secure implementation, if the
primary source fails. All of those methods are quite reliable, it would be
pretty surprising for them to fail, so we'd rather find out by failing
hard.

If no strong random source is available, we fall back to using erand48(),
seeded from current timestamp, like PostmasterRandom() was. That isn't
cryptographically secure, but allows us to still work on platforms that
don't have any of the above stronger sources. Because it's not very secure,
the built-in implementation is only used if explicitly requested with
--disable-strong-random.

This replaces the more complicated Fortuna algorithm we used to have in
pgcrypto, which is unfortunate, but all modern platforms have /dev/urandom,
so it doesn't seem worth the maintenance effort to keep that. pgcrypto
functions that require strong random numbers will be disabled with
--disable-strong-random.

and me.

Heikki Linnakangas 9e083fd468 Replace PostmasterRandom() with a stronger way of generating randomness.
This adds a new routine, pg_strong_random() for generating random bytes,
for use in both frontend and backend. At the moment, it's only used in
the backend, but the upcoming SCRAM authentication patches need strong
random numbers in libpq as well.

pg_strong_random() is based on, and replaces, the existing implementation
in pgcrypto. It can acquire strong random numbers from a number of sources,
depending on what's available:
- OpenSSL RAND_bytes(), if built with OpenSSL
- On Windows, the native cryptographic functions are used
- /dev/urandom
- /dev/random

Heikki Linnakangas 5c6df67e0c Fix building with LibreSSL.
LibreSSL defines OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER to claim that it is version 2.0.0,
but it doesn't have the functions added in OpenSSL 1.1.0. Add autoconf
checks for the individual functions we need, and stop relying on
OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER.

Backport to 9.5 and 9.6, like the patch that broke this. In the
back-branches, there are still a few OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER checks left,
to check for OpenSSL 0.9.8 or 0.9.7. I left them as they were - LibreSSL
has all those functions, so they work as intended.

Heikki Linnakangas 593d4e47db Support OpenSSL 1.1.0.
Changes needed to build at all:

- Check for SSL_new in configure, now that SSL_library_init is a macro.
- Do not access struct members directly. This includes some new code in
  pgcrypto, to use the resource owner mechanism to ensure that we don't
  leak OpenSSL handles, now that we can't embed them in other structs
  anymore.
- RAND_SSLeay() -> RAND_OpenSSL()

Changes that were needed to silence deprecation warnings, but were not
strictly necessary:

- RAND_pseudo_bytes() -> RAND_bytes().
- SSL_library_init() and OpenSSL_config() -> OPENSSL_init_ssl()
- ASN1_STRING_data() -> ASN1_STRING_get0_data()
- DH_generate_parameters() -> DH_generate_parameters()
- Locking callbacks are not needed with OpenSSL 1.1.0 anymore. (Good
  riddance!)

Also change references to SSLEAY_VERSION_NUMBER with OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER,
for the sake of consistency. OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER has existed since time
immemorial.

Fix SSL test suite to work with OpenSSL 1.1.0. CA certificates must have
the "CA:true" basic constraint extension now, or OpenSSL will refuse them.
Regenerate the test certificates with that. The "openssl" binary, used to
generate the certificates, is also now more picky, and throws an error
if an X509 extension is specified in "req_extensions", but that section
is empty.

Backpatch to all supported branches, per popular demand. In back-branches,
we still support OpenSSL 0.9.7 and above. OpenSSL 0.9.6 should still work
too, but I didn't test it. In master, we only support 0.9.8 and above.

Tom Lane 5484c0a980 Minor fixes in contrib installation scripts.
Extension scripts should never use CREATE OR REPLACE for initial object
creation.  If there is a collision with a pre-existing (probably
user-created) object, we want extension installation to fail, not silently
overwrite the user's object.  Bloom and sslinfo both violated this precept.

Also fix a number of scripts that had no standard header (the file name
comment and the \echo...\quit guard).  Probably the \echo...\quit hack
is less important now than it was in 9.1 days, but that doesn't mean
that individual extensions get to choose whether to use it or not.

And fix a couple of evident copy-and-pasteos in file name comments.

No need for back-patch: the REPLACE bugs are both new in 9.6, and the

This has been the predominant outcome.  When the output of decrypting

pgcrypto could instead report "Corrupt data", "Not text data" or
"Unsupported compression algorithm".  The distinct "Corrupt data"
message added no value.  The latter two error messages misled when the
decrypted payload also exhibited fundamental integrity problems.  Worse,
error message variance in other systems has enabled cryptologic attacks;

Tom Lane 785941cdc3 Tweak __attribute__-wrapping macros for better pgindent results.
This improves on commit bbfd7edae5 by
making two simple changes:

* pg_attribute_noreturn now takes parentheses, ie pg_attribute_noreturn().
Likewise pg_attribute_unused(), pg_attribute_packed().  This reduces
pgindent's tendency to misformat declarations involving them.

* attributes are now always attached to function declarations, not
definitions.  Previously some places were taking creative shortcuts,
which were not merely candidates for bad misformatting by pgindent
but often were outright wrong anyway.  (It does little good to put a
noreturn annotation where callers can't see it.)  In any case, if
we would like to believe that these macros can be used with non-gcc
compilers, we should avoid gratuitous variance in usage patterns.

I also went through and manually improved the formatting of a lot of
declarations, and got rid of excessively repetitive (and now obsolete
anyway) comments informing the reader what pg_attribute_printf is for.
2015-03-26 14:03:25 -04:00
Andres Freund bbfd7edae5 Add macros wrapping all usage of gcc's __attribute__.
Until now __attribute__() was defined to be empty for all compilers but
gcc. That's problematic because it prevents using it in other compilers;
which is necessary e.g. for atomics portability.  It's also just
generally dubious to do so in a header as widely included as c.h.

Instead add pg_attribute_format_arg, pg_attribute_printf,
pg_attribute_noreturn macros which are implemented in the compilers that
understand them. Also add pg_attribute_noreturn and pg_attribute_packed,
but don't provide fallbacks, since they can affect functionality.

This means that external code that, possibly unwittingly, relied on
__attribute__ defined to be empty on !gcc compilers may now run into
warnings or errors on those compilers. But there shouldn't be many
occurances of that and it's hard to work around...

Tom Lane a59ee88197 Fix Coverity warning about contrib/pgcrypto's mdc_finish().
Coverity points out that mdc_finish returns a pointer to a local buffer
(which of course is gone as soon as the function returns), leaving open
a risk of misbehaviors possibly as bad as a stack overwrite.

In reality, the only possible call site is in process_data_packets()
which does not examine the returned pointer at all.  So there's no
live bug, but nonetheless the code is confusing and risky.  Refactor
to avoid the issue by letting process_data_packets() call mdc_finish()
directly instead of going through the pullf_read() API.

Although this is only cosmetic, it seems good to back-patch so that
the logic in pgp-decrypt.c stays in sync across all branches.

Tom Lane 586dd5d6a5 Replace a bunch more uses of strncpy() with safer coding.
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.

Because of gcc -Wmissing-prototypes, all functions in dynamically
loadable modules must have a separate prototype declaration.  This is
meant to detect global functions that are not declared in header files,
but in cases where the function is called via dfmgr, this is redundant.
Besides filling up space with boilerplate, this is a frequent source of
compiler warnings in extension modules.

We can fix that by creating the function prototype as part of the
PG_FUNCTION_INFO_V1 macro, which such modules have to use anyway.  That
makes the code of modules cleaner, because there is one less place where
the entry points have to be listed, and creates an additional check that
functions have the right prototype.

Tom Lane 932ded2ed5 Fix incorrect password transformation in contrib/pgcrypto's DES crypt().
Overly tight coding caused the password transformation loop to stop
examining input once it had processed a byte equal to 0x80.  Thus, if the
given password string contained such a byte (which is possible though not
highly likely in UTF8, and perhaps also in other non-ASCII encodings), all
subsequent characters would not contribute to the hash, making the password
much weaker than it appears on the surface.

This would only affect cases where applications used DES crypt() to encode
passwords before storing them in the database.  If a weak password has been
created in this fashion, the hash will stop matching after this update has
been applied, so it will be easy to tell if any passwords were unexpectedly
weak.  Changing to a different password would be a good idea in such a case.
(Since DES has been considered inadequately secure for some time, changing
to a different encryption algorithm can also be recommended.)

This code, and the bug, are shared with at least PHP, FreeBSD, and OpenBSD.
Since the other projects have already published their fixes, there is no
point in trying to keep this commit private.

This bug has been assigned CVE-2012-2143, and credit for its discovery goes
to Rubin Xu and Joseph Bonneau.

We have seen one too many reports of people trying to use 9.1 extension

that usually not work (due to failure to substitute for MODULE_PATHNAME

objects not an extension.  To prevent this, insert an \echo ... \quit
line that prints a suitable error message into each extension script file,

file the wrong way, but make it crystal clear to users that they need to

Tom Lane ca59dfa6f7 Apply upstream fix for blowfish signed-character bug (CVE-2011-2483).
A password containing a character with the high bit set was misprocessed
on machines where char is signed (which is most).  This could cause the
preceding one to three characters to fail to affect the hashed result,
thus weakening the password.  The result was also unportable, and failed
to match some other blowfish implementations such as OpenBSD's.

Since the fix changes the output for such passwords, upstream chose
to provide a compatibility hack: password salts beginning with $2x$
(instead of the usual $2a$ for blowfish) are intentionally processed
"wrong" to give the same hash as before.  Stored password hashes can
thus be modified if necessary to still match, though it'd be better
to change any affected passwords.

In passing, sync a couple other upstream changes that marginally improve

Peter Eisentraut f8ebe3bcc5 Support "make check" in contrib
Added a new option --extra-install to pg_regress to arrange installing
the respective contrib directory into the temporary installation.
This is currently not yet supported for Windows MSVC builds.

Updated the .gitignore files for contrib modules to ignore the
leftovers of a temp-install check run.

Changed the exit status of "make check" in a pgxs build (which still
does nothing) to 0 from 1.

Added "make check" in contrib to top-level "make check-world".

Peter Eisentraut 5caa3479c2 Clean up most -Wunused-but-set-variable warnings from gcc 4.6
This warning is new in gcc 4.6 and part of -Wall.  This patch cleans
up most of the noise, but there are some still warnings that are
trickier to remove.

Tom Lane 029fac2264 Avoid use of CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION in extension installation files.
It was never terribly consistent to use OR REPLACE (because of the lack of
comparable functionality for data types, operators, etc), and
experimentation shows that it's now positively pernicious in the extension
world.  We really want a failure to occur if there are any conflicts, else
it's unclear what the extension-ownership state of the conflicted object
ought to be.  Most of the time, CREATE EXTENSION will fail anyway because
of conflicts on other object types, but an extension defining only
functions can succeed, with bad results.
