d367707827 Replace unportable use of /dev/stdin with lynx's -stdin switch. 2004-03-02 00:03:15 +00:00
a7e5e2fe74 When returning type "record", replace use of pgresultGetTupleDesc
with ReturnSetInfo->expectedDesc. This allows custom datatypes
(e.g. from tsearch2) to be returned at runtime. Previous behavior
depended on the type oid to match between the remote and local
database, which obviously doesn't work well for custom types.
Per report from Mark Gibson.

-fno-strict-aliasing.

a60442a446 Avoid generating invalid character encoding sequences in make_greater_string.
Not sure how this mistake evaded detection for so long.

b59917f02e Fix text_position to not scan past end of source string in multibyte
case, per report from Korea PostgreSQL Users' Group. Copied from Tom
Lane's 7.4 branch patch.

1b25db6a3c Repair incorrect order of operations in GetNewTransactionId(). We must
complete ExtendCLOG() before advancing nextXid, so that if that routine
fails, the next incoming transaction will try it again.  Per trouble
report from Christopher Kings-Lynne.

15ae5d26a0 Revert ill-starred change of 13-Feb-02: it appeared to fix a problem of
incorrect permissions checking, but in fact disabled most all permissions
checks for view updates.  This corrects problems reported by Sergey
Yatskevich among others, at the cost of re-introducing the problem
previously reported by Tim Burgess.  However, since we'd lived with that
problem for quite awhile without knowing it, we can live with it awhile
longer until a proper fix can be made in 7.5.

8d802d4edf Force zero_damaged_pages to be effectively ON during recovery from WAL,
since there is no need to worry about damaged pages when we are going to
overwrite them anyway from the WAL.  Per recent discussion.

6144601f42 Back-patch fix to check vartypmod when matching PlannerParamVar entries.
This should prevent some obscure cases of 'variable not in subplan target
lists', although actual failures have only been reported against 7.4 in
which the bug is much easier to trigger.
2003-11-30 22:24:16 +00:00
a0547f6ea2 Back-patch fix to cause stats processes to detach from shared memory,
so that they do not prevent the postmaster from deleting the shmem segment
during crash recovery.

8582f21afd Make PQescapeBytea and byteaout consistent with each other, and
octal escape all octets outside the range 0x20 to 0x7e. This fixes
the problem pointed out by Sergey Yatskevich here:

d1c496e9d5 Fix for possible referential integrity violation when a qualified ON INSERT
rule split the query into one INSERT and one UPDATE where the UPDATE
then hit's the just created row without modifying the key fields again.
In this special case, the new key slipped in totally unchecked.

9e692f2307 Support for qualified type names in PL/Tcl's spi_prepare command.
This is not 100% backward compatible as formerly a double quoted
type name containing a dot could be used. But I don't think may people
use dot's in the name of user defined types.

0847c879a9 Don't choke when the handler for a procedural language is located in
the pg_catalog schema.  Per bug report some months back from Jochem van Dieten.

98c7f157f2 It is possible for ResolveNew to be used to insert a sublink into a
subquery that didn't previously have one.  We have traditionally made
the caller of ResolveNew responsible for updating the hasSubLinks flag
of the outermost query, but this fails to account for hasSubLinks in
subqueries.  Fix ResolveNew to handle this.  We might later want to
change the calling convention of ResolveNew so that it can fix the
outer query too, simplifying callers.  But I went with the localized
fix for now.  Per bug report from J Smith, 20-Oct-03.

f8ee74faeb When dumping CREATE INDEX, must show opclass name if the opclass isn't
in the schema search path.  Otherwise pg_dump doesn't correctly dump
scenarios where a custom opclass is created in 'public' and then used
by indexes in other schemas.

243f11ccf1 [ Patch applied only to 7.3.X.]
Hi There's a bug in the clusterdb script where it looks like the arguments
to the psql command are being passed in the wrong order, so it fails when
you run it on a database that is not on localhost.
Here's the output from the command:

133 anands-Computer:bin/scripts> clusterdb -h wooster -U rr granada
psql: warning: extra option wooster ignored
psql: warning: extra option -U ignored

pg_index.indisclustered AND pg_class.relowner=(SELECT usesysid FROM
pg_user WHERE usename=current_user) ignored
psql: FATAL:  user "-h" does not exist



I'm attaching a patch that fixes the problem. The diff was run on
postgresql 7.3.4

Thanks a lot.

8ba1fa7db1 Backport to 7.3. Third try to fix the sql injection
vulnerability.  This fix completely removes the ability (hack) of being able
to bind a list of values in an in clause.  It was demonstrated that by allowing
that functionality you open up the possibility for certain types of
sql injection attacks.  The previous fix attempts all focused on preventing
the insertion of additional sql statements (the semi-colon problem:
xxx; any new sql statement here).  But that still left the ability to
change the where clause on the current statement or perform a subselect
which can circumvent applicaiton security logic and/or allow you to call
any stored function.

in HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP cases, including two potential stack smashes
when more than six fractional digits were supplied.  Per bug report

d1f35b73ac SSL_read/SSL_write do not approximate the return conventions of recv()
and send() very well at all; and in any case we can't use retval==0
for EOF due to race conditions.  Make the same fixes in the backend as
are required in libpq.

a4ffca6bdf Fix longstanding error in _bt_search(): should moveright at top of loop not
bottom.  Otherwise we fail to moveright when the root page was split while
we were "in flight" to it.  This is not a significant problem when the root
is above the leaf level, but if the root was also a leaf (ie, a single-page
index just got split) we may return the wrong leaf page to the caller,
resulting in failure to find a key that is in fact present.  Bug has existed
at least since 7.1, probably forever.
