(1) The code doesn't initialize `sum', so the initial "does the checksum
match?" test is wrong.
(2) The loop that is intended to check for a "null block" just checks
the first byte of the tar block 512 times, rather than each of the
512 bytes one time (!), which I'm guessing was the intent.
It was only through sheer luck that this worked in the first place.

malformed ident map file. This was introduced by the linked list
rewrite in 8.0 -- mea maxima culpa.

It never leaked memory before PG 8.0, so none of the callers are
expecting this. Cleanest fix seems to be to make it allocate the needed
memory in estate->eval_econtext, where it will be cleaned up by
the next exec_eval_cleanup. Per report from Bill Rugolsky.
copying/converting the new value, which meant that it failed badly on
"var := var" if var is of pass-by-reference type. Fix this and a similar
hazard in exec_move_row(); not sure that the latter can manifest before
8.0, but patch it all the way back anyway. Per report from Dave Chapeskie.
not memcpy() to copy the offered key into the hash table during HASH_ENTER.
This avoids possible core dump if the passed key is located very near the
end of memory. Per report from Stefan Kaltenbrunner.
if geqo_rand() returns exactly 1.0, resulting in failure due to indexing
off the end of the pool array. Also, since this is using inexact float math,
it seems wise to guard against roundoff error producing values slightly
outside the expected range. Per report from bug@zedware.org.
to just around the bare recv() call that gets a command from the client.
The former placement in PostgresMain was unsafe because the intermediate
processing layers (especially SSL) use facilities such as malloc that are
not necessarily re-entrant. Per report from counterstorm.com.
to columns of an RTE that was a function returning RECORD with a column
definition list. Apparently no one has tried to use non-default typmod
with a function returning RECORD before.
working buffer into ParseDateTime() and reject too-long input there,
rather than checking the length of the input string before calling
ParseDateTime(). The old method was bogus because ParseDateTime() can use
a variable amount of working space, depending on the content of the
input string (e.g. how many fields need to be NUL terminated). This fixes
a minor stack overrun -- I don't _think_ it's exploitable, although I
won't claim to be an expert.
Along the way, fix a bug reported by Mark Dilger: the working buffer
allocated by interval_in() was too short, which resulted in rejecting
some perfectly valid interval input values. I added a regression test for
this fix.
if they are two-byte multibyte characters. Same thing can be happen
if octet_length(multibyte_chars) == n where n is char(n).
Long standing bug since 7.3 days. Per report and fix from Yoshiyuki Asaba.
where there was also a WHERE-clause restriction that applied to the
join. The check on restrictlist == NIL is really unnecessary anyway,
because select_mergejoin_clauses already checked for and complained
about any unmergejoinable join clauses. So just take it out.
and VACUUM: in the interval between adding a new page to the relation
and formatting it, it was possible for VACUUM to come along and decide
it should format the page too. Though not harmful in itself, this would
cause data loss if a third transaction were able to insert tuples into
the vacuumed page before the original extender got control back.
before we check commit/abort status. Formerly this was done in some paths
but not all, with the result that a transaction might be considered
committed for some purposes before it became committed for others.

output area as INTERNAL not CSTRING. This is to prevent people from
calling the functions by hand. This is a permanent solution for the
back branches but I hope it is just a stopgap for HEAD.
that return INTERNAL without also having INTERNAL arguments. Since the
functions in question aren't meant to be called by hand anyway, I just
redeclared them to take 'internal' instead of 'text'. Also add code
to ProcedureCreate() to enforce the restriction, as I should have done
to start with :-(
record object itself, rather than relying on a second OID argument to be
correct. This patch just changes the function behavior and not the
catalogs, so it's OK to back-patch to 8.0. Will remove the now-redundant
second argument in pg_proc in a separate patch in HEAD only.
a warning when a variable is used as a format string for printf()
and similar functions (if the variable is derived from untrusted
data, it could include unexpected formatting sequences). This
emits too many warnings to be enabled by default, but it does
flag a few dubious constructs in the Postgres tree. This patch
fixes up the obvious variants: functions that are passed a variable
format string but no additional arguments.
Most of these are harmless (e.g. the ruleutils stuff), but there
is at least one actual bug here: if you create a trigger named
"%sfoo", pg_dump will read uninitialized memory and fail to dump
the trigger correctly.
of timetz values misbehaved in --enable-integer-datetime cases, and
EXTRACT(EPOCH) subtracted the zone instead of adding it in all cases.
Backpatch to all supported releases (except --enable-integer-datetime code
does not exist in 7.2).
