dd3ad2a4d7 Harden _int_matchsel() against being attached to the wrong operator.
While the preceding commit prevented such attachments from occurring
in future, this one aims to prevent further abuse of any already-
created operator that exposes _int_matchsel to the wrong data types.
(No other contrib module has a vulnerable selectivity estimator.)

We need only check that the Const we've found in the query is indeed
of the type we expect (query_int), but there's a difficulty: as an
extension type, query_int doesn't have a fixed OID that we could
hard-code into the estimator.

Therefore, the bulk of this patch consists of infrastructure to let
an extension function securely look up the OID of a datatype
belonging to the same extension.  (Extension authors have requested
such functionality before, so we anticipate that this code will
have additional non-security uses, and may soon be extended to allow
looking up other kinds of SQL objects.)

This is done by first finding the extension that owns the calling
function (there can be only one), and then thumbing through the
objects owned by that extension to find a type that has the desired
name.  This is relatively expensive, especially for large extensions,
so a simple cache is put in front of these lookups.

bbf5bcf587 Require superuser to install a non-built-in selectivity estimator.
Selectivity estimators come in two flavors: those that make specific
assumptions about the data types they are working with, and those
that don't.  Most of the built-in estimators are of the latter kind
and are meant to be safely attachable to any operator.  If the
operator does not behave as the estimator expects, you might get a
poor estimate, but it won't crash.

However, estimators that do make datatype assumptions can malfunction
if they are attached to the wrong operator, since then the data they
get from pg_statistic may not be of the type they expect.  This can
rise to the level of a security problem, even permitting arbitrary
code execution by a user who has the ability to create SQL objects.

To close this hole, establish a rule that built-in estimators are
required to protect themselves against being called on the wrong type
of data.  It does not seem practical however to expect estimators in
extensions to reach a similar level of security, at least not in the
near term.  Therefore, also establish a rule that superuser privilege
is required to attach a non-built-in estimator to an operator.
We expect that this restriction will have little negative impact on
extensions, since estimators generally have to be written in C and
thus superuser privilege is required to create them in the first
place.

This commit changes the privilege checks in CREATE/ALTER OPERATOR
to enforce the rule about superuser privilege, and fixes a couple
of built-in estimators that were making datatype assumptions without
sufficiently checking that they're valid.

dbb09fd8e8 Add a syscache on pg_extension.oid.
An upcoming patch requires this cache so that it can track updates
in the pg_extension catalog.  So far though, the EXTENSIONOID cache
only exists in v18 and up (see 490f869d9).  We can add it in older
branches without an ABI break, if we are careful not to disturb the
numbering of existing syscache IDs.

In v16 and before, that just requires adding the new ID at the end
of the hand-assigned enum list, ignoring our convention about
alphabetizing the IDs.  But in v17, genbki.pl enforces alphabetical
order of the IDs listed in MAKE_SYSCACHE macros.  We can fake it
out by calling the new cache ZEXTENSIONOID.

Note that adding a syscache does change the required contents of the
relcache init file (pg_internal.init).  But that isn't problematic
since we blow those away at postmaster start for other reasons.

3d160401b6 Guard against unexpected dimensions of oidvector/int2vector.
These data types are represented like full-fledged arrays, but
functions that deal specifically with these types assume that the
array is 1-dimensional and contains no nulls.  However, there are
cast pathways that allow general oid[] or int2[] arrays to be cast
to these types, allowing these expectations to be violated.  This
can be exploited to cause server memory disclosure or SIGSEGV.
Fix by installing explicit checks in functions that accept these
types.

dc072a09ad Require PGP-decrypted text to pass encoding validation.
pgp_sym_decrypt() and pgp_pub_decrypt() will raise such errors, while
bytea variants will not.  The existing "dat3" test decrypted to non-UTF8
text, so switch that query to bytea.

The long-term intent is for type "text" to always be valid in the
database encoding.  pgcrypto has long been known as a source of
exceptions to that intent, but a report about exploiting invalid values
of type "text" brought this module to the forefront.  This particular
exception is straightforward to fix, with reasonable effect on user
queries.  Back-patch to v14 (all supported versions).

10ebc4bd67 Code coverage for most pg_mblen* calls.
A security patch changed them today, so close the coverage gap now.
Test that buffer overrun is avoided when pg_mblen*() requires more
than the number of bytes remaining.

This does not cover the calls in dict_thesaurus.c or in dict_synonym.c.
That code is straightforward.  To change that code's input, one must
have access to modify installed OS files, so low-privilege users are not
a threat.  Testing this would likewise require changing installed
share/postgresql/tsearch_data, which was enough of an obstacle to not
bother.

319e8a6441 Replace pg_mblen() with bounds-checked versions.
A corrupted string could cause code that iterates with pg_mblen() to
overrun its buffer.  Fix, by converting all callers to one of the
following:

1. Callers with a null-terminated string now use pg_mblen_cstr(), which
raises an "illegal byte sequence" error if it finds a terminator in the
middle of the sequence.

2. Callers with a length or end pointer now use either
pg_mblen_with_len() or pg_mblen_range(), for the same effect, depending
on which of the two seems more convenient at each site.

3. A small number of cases pre-validate a string, and can use
pg_mblen_unbounded().

The traditional pg_mblen() function and COPYCHAR macro still exist for
backward compatibility, but are no longer used by core code and are
hereby deprecated.  The same applies to the t_isXXX() functions.

7a522039f7 Fix mb2wchar functions on short input.
When converting multibyte to pg_wchar, the UTF-8 implementation would
silently ignore an incomplete final character, while the other
implementations would cast a single byte to pg_wchar, and then repeat
for the remaining byte sequence.  While it didn't overrun the buffer, it
was surely garbage output.

Make all encodings behave like the UTF-8 implementation.  A later change
for master only will convert this to an error, but we choose not to
back-patch that behavior change on the off-chance that someone is
relying on the existing UTF-8 behavior.

838248b1bf Fix encoding length for EUC_CN.
While EUC_CN supports only 1- and 2-byte sequences (CS0, CS1), the
mb<->wchar conversion functions allow 3-byte sequences beginning SS2,
SS3.

Change pg_encoding_max_length() to return 3, not 2, to close a
hypothesized buffer overrun if a corrupted string is converted to wchar
and back again in a newly allocated buffer.  We might reconsider that in
master (ie harmonizing in a different direction), but this change seems
better for the back-branches.

Also change pg_euccn_mblen() to report SS2 and SS3 characters as having
length 3 (following the example of EUC_KR).  Even though such characters
would not pass verification, it's remotely possible that invalid bytes
could be used to compute a buffer size for use in wchar conversion.

7a7d9693c7 pgcrypto: Fix buffer overflow in pgp_pub_decrypt_bytea()
pgp_pub_decrypt_bytea() was missing a safeguard for the session key
length read from the message data, that can be given in input of
pgp_pub_decrypt_bytea().  This can result in the possibility of a buffer

than PGP_MAX_KEY, which is the maximum size of the buffer where the
session data is copied to.

A script able to rebuild the message and key data that can trigger the
overflow is included in this commit, based on some contents provided by

59c2f7efae meson: host_system value for Solaris is 'sunos' not 'solaris'.
This thinko caused us to not substitute our own getopt() code,
which results in failing to parse long options for the postmaster
since Solaris' getopt() doesn't do what we expect.  This can be seen
in the results of buildfarm member icarus, which is the only one
trying to build via meson on Solaris.

Per consultation with pgsql-release, it seems okay to fix this
now even though we're in release freeze.  The fix visibly won't
affect any other platforms, and it can't break Solaris/meson
builds any worse than they're already broken.

5d61bdd114 Protect against small overread in SASLprep validation
(This is a cherry-pick of 390b3cbbb, which I hadn't realized wasn't
backpatched. It was originally reported to security@ and determined not
to be a vulnerability; thanks to Stanislav Osipov for noticing the
omission in the back branches.)

In case of torn UTF8 in the input data we might end up going
past the end of the string since we don't account for length.
While validation won't be performed on a sequence with a NULL
byte it's better to avoid going past the end to beging with.
Fix by taking the length into consideration.

 * XFS could produce spurious ENOSPC errors in some Linux kernel

Commit 5f13999aa1 added a TAP test for GUC settings passed via the

The test incorrectly used the subscriber's log file position as the

erroneously reported a failure.

This commit fixes the test to use the publisher's own log file position
when reading the publisher's log.

Also, to avoid similar confusion in the future, this commit splits the single

241803febf Fix build inconsistency due to the generation of wait-event code
The build generates four files based on the wait event contents stored
in wait_event_names.txt:
- wait_event_types.h
- pgstat_wait_event.c
- wait_event_funcs_data.c
- wait_event_types.sgml

The SGML file is generated as part of a documentation build, with its
data stored in doc/src/sgml/ for meson and configure.  The three others
are handled differently for meson and configure:
- In configure, all the files are created in src/backend/utils/activity/.
A link to wait_event_types.h is created in src/include/utils/.
- In meson, all the files are created in src/include/utils/.

The two C files, pgstat_wait_event.c and wait_event_funcs_data.c, are
then included in respectively wait_event.c and wait_event_funcs.c,
without the "utils/" path.

For configure, this does not present a problem.  For meson, this has to
be combined with a trick in src/backend/utils/activity/meson.build,
where include_directories needs to point to include/utils/ to make the
inclusion of the C files work properly, causing builds to pull in
PostgreSQL headers rather than system headers in some build paths, as
src/include/utils/ would take priority.

In order to fix this issue, this commit reworks the way the C/H files
are generated, becoming consistent with guc_tables.inc.c:
- For meson, basically nothing changes.  The files are still generated
in src/include/utils/.  The trick with include_directories is removed.
- For configure, the files are now generated in src/backend/utils/, with
links in src/include/utils/ pointing to the ones in src/backend/.  This
requires extra rules in src/backend/utils/activity/Makefile so as a
make command in this sub-directory is able to work.
- The three files now fall under header-stamp, which is actually simpler
as guc_tables.inc.c does the same.
- wait_event_funcs_data.c and pgstat_wait_event.c are now included with
"utils/" in their path.

This problem has not been an issue in the buildfarm; it has been noted
with AIX and a conflict with float.h.  This issue could, however, create
conflicts in the buildfarm depending on the environment with unexpected
headers pulled in, so this fix is backpatched down to where the
generation of the wait-event files has been introduced.

While on it, this commit simplifies wait_event_names.txt regarding the
paths of the files generated, to mention just the names of the files
generated.  The paths where the files are generated became incorrect.
The path of the SGML path was wrong.

This change has been tested in the CI, down to v17.  Locally, I have run
tests with configure (with and without VPATH), as well as meson, on the
three branches.

f356e2888c Improve guards against false regex matches in BackgroundPsql.pm.
BackgroundPsql needs to wait for all the output from an interactive
psql command to come back.  To make sure that's happened, it issues
the command, then issues \echo and \warn psql commands that echo
a "banner" string (which we assume won't appear in the command's
output), then waits for the banner strings to appear.  The hazard
in this approach is that the banner will also appear in the echoed
psql commands themselves, so we need to distinguish those echoes from
the desired output.  Commit 8b886a4e3 tried to do that by positing
that the desired output would be directly preceded and followed by
newlines, but it turns out that that assumption is timing-sensitive.
In particular, it tends to fail in builds made --without-readline,
wherein the command echoes will be made by the pty driver and may
be interspersed with prompts issued by psql proper.

It does seem safe to assume that the banner output we want will be
followed by a newline, since that should be the last output before
things quiesce.  Therefore, we can improve matters by putting quotes
around the banner strings in the \echo and \warn psql commands, so
that their echoes cannot include banner directly followed by newline,

9649f1adfd Fix CI failure introduced in commit 851f6649cc.
The test added in commit 851f6649cc uses a backup taken from a node
created by the previous test to perform standby related checks. On
Windows, however, the standby failed to start with the following error:
FATAL:  could not rename file "backup_label" to "backup_label.old": Permission denied

This occurred because some background sessions from the earlier test were
still active. These leftover processes continued accessing the parent
directory of the backup_label file, likely preventing the rename and
causing the failure. Ensuring that these sessions are cleanly terminated
resolves the issue in local testing.

Additionally, the has_restoring => 1 option has been removed, as it was
not required by the new test.

3243c0177e Prevent invalidation of newly synced replication slots.
A race condition could cause a newly synced replication slot to become
invalidated between its initial sync and the checkpoint.

When syncing a replication slot to a standby, the slot's initial
restart_lsn is taken from the publisher's remote_restart_lsn. Because slot
sync happens asynchronously, this value can lag behind the standby's
current redo pointer. Without any interlocking between WAL reservation and
checkpoints, a checkpoint may remove WAL required by the newly synced
slot, causing the slot to be invalidated.

To fix this, we acquire ReplicationSlotAllocationLock before reserving WAL
for a newly synced slot, similar to commit 006dd4b2e5. This ensures that
if WAL reservation happens first, the checkpoint process must wait for
slotsync to update the slot's restart_lsn before it computes the minimum
required LSN.

However, unlike in ReplicationSlotReserveWal(), this lock alone cannot
protect a newly synced slot if a checkpoint has already run
CheckPointReplicationSlots() before slotsync updates the slot. In such
cases, the remote restart_lsn may be stale and earlier than the current
redo pointer. To prevent relying on an outdated LSN, we use the oldest
WAL location available if it is greater than the remote restart_lsn.

This ensures that newly synced slots always start with a safe, non-stale
restart_lsn and are not invalidated by concurrent checkpoints.

cae8127411 Fix possible issue of a WindowFunc being in the wrong WindowClause
ed1a88dda made it so WindowClauses can be merged when all window
functions belonging to the WindowClause can equally well use some
other WindowClause without any behavioral changes.  When that
optimization applies, the WindowFunc's "winref" gets adjusted to
reference the new WindowClause.

That commit does not work well with the deduplication logic in
find_window_functions(), which only added the WindowFunc to the list
when there wasn't already an identical WindowFunc in the list.  That
deduplication logic meant that the duplicate WindowFunc wouldn't get the
"winref" changed when optimize_window_clauses() was able to swap the
WindowFunc to another WindowClause.  This could lead to the following
error in the unlikely event that the deduplication code did something and
the duplicate WindowFunc happened to be moved into another WindowClause.

ERROR:  WindowFunc with winref 2 assigned to WindowAgg with winref 1

As it turns out, the deduplication logic in find_window_functions() is
pretty bogus.  It might have done something when added, as that code
predates b8d7f053c, which changed how projections work.  As it turns
out, at least now we *will* evaluate the duplicate WindowFuncs.  All
that the deduplication code seems to do today is assist in
underestimating the WindowAggPath costs due to not counting the
evaluation costs of duplicate WindowFuncs.

Ideally the fix would be to remove the deduplication code, but that
could result in changes to the plan costs, as duplicate WindowFuncs
would then be costed.  Instead, let's play it safe and shift the
deduplication code so it runs after the other processing in
optimize_window_clauses().

Backpatch only as far as v16 as there doesn't seem to be any other harm
done by the WindowFunc deduplication code before then.  This issue was
fixed in master by 7027dd499.

c5fc17ddac Fix trigger transition table capture for MERGE in CTE queries.
When executing a data-modifying CTE query containing MERGE and some
other DML operation on a table with statement-level AFTER triggers,
the transition tables passed to the triggers would fail to include the
rows affected by the MERGE.

The reason is that, when initializing a ModifyTable node for MERGE,
MakeTransitionCaptureState() would create a TransitionCaptureState
structure with a single "tcs_private" field pointing to an
AfterTriggersTableData structure with cmdType == CMD_MERGE. Tuples
captured there would then not be included in the sets of tuples
captured when executing INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE ModifyTable nodes in the
same query.

Since there are no MERGE triggers, we should only create
AfterTriggersTableData structures for INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. Individual
MERGE actions should then use those, thereby sharing the same capture
tuplestores as any other DML commands executed in the same query.

This requires changing the TransitionCaptureState structure, replacing
"tcs_private" with 3 separate pointers to AfterTriggersTableData
structures, one for each of INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE. Nominally,
this is an ABI break to a public structure in commands/trigger.h.
However, since this is a private field pointing to an opaque data
structure, the only way to create a valid TransitionCaptureState is by
calling MakeTransitionCaptureState(), and no extensions appear to be
doing that anyway, so it seems safe for back-patching.

Backpatch to v15, where MERGE was introduced.

933f67fb6a Fix bogus ctid requirement for dummy-root partitioned targets
ExecInitModifyTable() unconditionally required a ctid junk column even
when the target was a partitioned table. This led to spurious "could
not find junk ctid column" errors when all children were excluded and
only the dummy root result relation remained.

A partitioned table only appears in the result relations list when all
leaf partitions have been pruned, leaving the dummy root as the sole
entry. Assert this invariant (nrels == 1) and skip the ctid requirement.
Also adjust ExecModifyTable() to tolerate invalid ri_RowIdAttNo for
partitioned tables, which is safe since no rows will be processed in
this case.

3fabfc6595 Remove faulty Assert in partitioned INSERT...ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE.
Commit f16241bef mistakenly supposed that INSERT...ON CONFLICT DO
UPDATE rejects partitioned target tables.  (This may have been
accurate when the patch was written, but it was already obsolete
when committed.)  Hence, there's an assertion that we can't see
ItemPointerIndicatesMovedPartitions() in that path, but the assertion
is triggerable.

Some other places throw error if they see a moved-across-partitions
tuple, but there seems no need for that here, because if we just retry
then we get the same behavior as in the update-within-partition case,
as demonstrated by the new isolation test.  So fix by deleting the
faulty Assert.  (The fact that this is the fix doubtless explains
why we've heard no field complaints: the behavior of a non-assert
build is fine.)

The TM_Deleted case contains a cargo-culted copy of the same Assert,
which I also deleted to avoid confusion, although I believe that one
is actually not triggerable.

Per our code coverage report, neither the TM_Updated nor the
TM_Deleted case were reached at all by existing tests, so this
patch adds tests for both.

d0bb0e5b36 jit: Add missing inline pass for LLVM >= 17.
With LLVM >= 17, transform passes are provided as a string to
LLVMRunPasses. Only two strings were used: "default<O3>" and
"default<O0>,mem2reg".

With previous LLVM versions, an additional inline pass was added when
JIT inlining was enabled without optimization. With LLVM >= 17, the code
would go through llvm_inline, prepare the functions for inlining, but
the generated bitcode would be the same due to the missing inline pass.

This patch restores the previous behavior by adding an inline pass when
inlining is enabled but no optimization is done.

This fixes an oversight introduced by 76200e5e when support for LLVM 17
was added.

4071fe900e Fix segfault from releasing locks in detached DSM segments
If a FATAL error occurs while holding a lock in a DSM segment (such
as a dshash lock) and the process is not in a transaction, a
segmentation fault can occur during process exit.

The problem sequence is:

 1. Process acquires a lock in a DSM segment (e.g., via dshash)
 2. FATAL error occurs outside transaction context
 3. proc_exit() begins, calling before_shmem_exit callbacks
 4. dsm_backend_shutdown() detaches all DSM segments
 5. Later, on_shmem_exit callbacks run
 6. ProcKill() calls LWLockReleaseAll()
 7. Segfault: the lock being released is in unmapped memory

This only manifests outside transaction contexts because
AbortTransaction() calls LWLockReleaseAll() during transaction
abort, releasing locks before DSM cleanup. Background workers and
other non-transactional code paths are vulnerable.

Fix by calling LWLockReleaseAll() unconditionally at the start of
shmem_exit(), before any callbacks run. Releasing locks before
callbacks prevents the segfault - locks must be released before
dsm_backend_shutdown() detaches their memory. This is safe because
after an error, held locks are protecting potentially inconsistent
data anyway, and callbacks can acquire fresh locks if needed.

Also add a comment noting that LWLockReleaseAll() must be safe to
call before LWLock initialization (which it is, since
num_held_lwlocks will be 0), plus an Assert for the post-condition.

This fix aligns with the original design intent from commit
001a573a2, which noted that backends must clean up shared memory
state (including releasing lwlocks) before unmapping dynamic shared
memory segments.

c3770181c8 Fix 'unexpected data beyond EOF' on replica restart
On restart, a replica can fail with an error like 'unexpected data
beyond EOF in block 200 of relation T/D/R'. These are the steps to
reproduce it:

- A relation has a size of 400 blocks.
  - Blocks 201 to 400 are empty.
  - Block 200 has two rows.
  - Blocks 100 to 199 are empty.
- A restartpoint is done
- Vacuum truncates the relation to 200 blocks
- A FPW deletes a row in block 200
- A checkpoint is done
- A FPW deletes the last row in block 200
- Vacuum truncates the relation to 100 blocks
- The replica restarts

When the replica restarts:

- The relation on disk starts at 100 blocks, because all the
  truncations were applied before restart.
- The first truncate to 200 blocks is replayed. It silently fails, but
  it will still (incorrectly!) update the cache size to 200 blocks
- The first FPW on block 200 is applied. XLogReadBufferForRead relies
  on the cached size and incorrectly assumes that the page already
  exists in the file, and thus won't extend the relation.
- The online checkpoint record is replayed, calling smgrdestroyall
  which causes the cached size to be discarded
- The second FPW on block 200 is applied. This time, the detected size
  is 100 blocks, an extend is attempted. However, the block 200 is
  already present in the buffer cache due to the first FPW. This
  triggers the 'unexpected data beyond EOF'.

To fix, update the cached size in SmgrRelation with the current size
rather than the requested new size, when the requested new size is
greater.

d3ad4cef6e Add check for invalid offset at multixid truncation
If a multixid with zero offset is left behind after a crash, and that
multixid later becomes the oldest multixid, truncation might try to
look up its offset and read the zero value. In the worst case, we
might incorrectly use the zero offset to truncate valid SLRU segments
that are still needed. I'm not sure if that can happen in practice, or
if there are some other lower-level safeguards or incidental reasons
that prevent the caller from passing an unwritten multixid as the
oldest multi. But better safe than sorry, so let's add an explicit
check for it.

In stable branches, we should perhaps do the same check for
'oldestOffset', i.e. the offset of the old oldest multixid (in master,
'oldestOffset' is gone). But if the old oldest multixid has an invalid
offset, the damage has been done already, and we would never advance
past that point. It's not clear what we should do in that case. The
check that this commit adds will prevent such an multixid with invalid
offset from becoming the oldest multixid in the first place, which
seems enough for now.
