These programs nominally accepted conninfo strings, but they would proceed to use the original dbname parameter as though it were an unadorned database name. This caused "reindexdb dbname=foo" to issue an SQL command that always failed, and other programs printed a conninfo string in error messages that purported to print a database name. Fix both problems by using PQdb() to retrieve actual database names. Continue to print the full conninfo string when reporting a connection failure. It is informative there, and if the database name is the sole problem, the server-side error message will include the name. Beyond those user-visible fixes, this allows a subsequent commit to synthesize and use conninfo strings without that implementation detail leaking into messages. As a side effect, the "vacuuming database" message now appears after, not before, the connection attempt. Back-patch to 9.1 (all supported versions). Reviewed by Michael Paquier and Peter Eisentraut. Security: CVE-2016-5424 |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
