postgresql-16 (16.8-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream version 16.8.

    + Improve behavior of libpq's quoting functions (Andres Freund, Tom Lane)

      The changes made for CVE-2025-1094 had one serious oversight:
      PQescapeLiteral() and PQescapeIdentifier() failed to honor their string
      length parameter, instead always reading to the input string's trailing
      null.  This resulted in including unwanted text in the output, if the
      caller intended to truncate the string via the length parameter.  With
      very bad luck it could cause a crash due to reading off the end of
      memory.

      In addition, modify all these quoting functions so that when invalid
      encoding is detected, an invalid sequence is substituted for just the
      first byte of the presumed character, not all of it.  This reduces the
      risk of problems if a calling application performs additional processing
      on the quoted string.

postgresql-16 (16.7-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream version 16.7.

    + Harden PQescapeString and allied functions against invalidly-encoded
      input strings (Andres Freund, Noah Misch)

      Data-quoting functions supplied by libpq now fully check the encoding
      validity of their input.  If invalid characters are detected, they
      report an error if possible.  For the ones that lack an error return
      convention, the output string is adjusted to ensure that the server will
      report invalid encoding and no intervening processing will be fooled by
      bytes that might happen to match single quote, backslash, etc.

      The purpose of this change is to guard against SQL-injection attacks
      that are possible if one of these functions is used to quote crafted
      input.  There is no hazard when the resulting string is sent directly to
      a PostgreSQL server (which would check its encoding anyway), but there
      is a risk when it is passed through psql or other client-side code.
      Historically such code has not carefully vetted encoding, and in many
      cases it's not clear what it should do if it did detect such a problem.

      This fix is effective only if the data-quoting function, the server, and
      any intermediate processing agree on the character encoding that's being
      used.  Applications that insert untrusted input into SQL commands should
      take special care to ensure that that's true.

      Applications and drivers that quote untrusted input without using these
      libpq functions may be at risk of similar problems.  They should first
      confirm the data is valid in the encoding expected by the server.

      The PostgreSQL Project thanks Stephen Fewer for reporting this problem.

    + Repair ABI break for extensions that work with struct ResultRelInfo

      Last week's minor releases unintentionally broke binary compatibility
      with timescaledb and several other extensions.  Restore the affected
      structure to its previous size, so that such extensions need not be
      rebuilt.

    + Restore functionality of ALTER {ROLE|DATABASE} SET role

      The fix for CVE-2024-10978 accidentally caused settings for role to not
      be applied if they come from non-interactive sources, including previous
      ALTER {ROLE|DATABASE} commands and the PGOPTIONS environment variable.

  * New upstream version 16.5.

    + Ensure cached plans are marked as dependent on the calling role when RLS
      applies to a non-top-level table reference (Nathan Bossart)

      If a CTE, subquery, sublink, security invoker view, or coercion
      projection in a query references a table with row-level security
      policies, we neglected to mark the resulting plan as potentially
      dependent on which role is executing it.  This could lead to later query
      executions in the same session using the wrong plan, and then returning
      or hiding rows that should have been hidden or returned instead.

      The PostgreSQL Project thanks Wolfgang Walther for reporting this
      problem. (CVE-2024-10976)

    + Make libpq discard error messages received during SSL or GSS protocol
      negotiation (Jacob Champion)

      An error message received before encryption negotiation is completed
      might have been injected by a man-in-the-middle, rather than being real
      server output.  Reporting it opens the door to various security hazards;
      for example, the message might spoof a query result that a careless user
      could mistake for correct output.  The best answer seems to be to
      discard such data and rely only on libpq's own report of the connection
      failure.

      The PostgreSQL Project thanks Jacob Champion for reporting this problem.
      (CVE-2024-10977)

    + Fix unintended interactions between SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION and SET
      ROLE (Tom Lane)

      The SQL standard mandates that SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION have a
      side-effect of doing SET ROLE NONE.  Our implementation of that was
      flawed, creating more interaction between the two settings than
      intended. Notably, rolling back a transaction that had done SET SESSION
      AUTHORIZATION would revert ROLE to NONE even if that had not been the
      previous state, so that the effective user ID might now be different
      from what it had been before the transaction.  Transiently setting
      session_authorization in a function SET clause had a similar effect. A
      related bug was that if a parallel worker inspected
      current_setting('role'), it saw none even when it should see something
      else.

      The PostgreSQL Project thanks Tom Lane for reporting this problem.
      (CVE-2024-10978)

    + Prevent trusted PL/Perl code from changing environment variables
      (Andrew Dunstan, Noah Misch)

      The ability to manipulate process environment variables such as PATH
      gives an attacker opportunities to execute arbitrary code.  Therefore,
      trusted PLs must not offer the ability to do that.  To fix plperl,
      replace %ENV with a tied hash that rejects any modification attempt with
      a warning. Untrusted plperlu retains the ability to change the
      environment.

      The PostgreSQL Project thanks Coby Abrams for reporting this problem.

  * New upstream version.

    + Prevent unauthorized code execution during pg_dump (Masahiko Sawada)

      An attacker able to create and drop non-temporary objects could inject
      SQL code that would be executed by a concurrent pg_dump session with the
      privileges of the role running pg_dump (which is often a superuser).
      The attack involves replacing a sequence or similar object with a view
      or foreign table that will execute malicious code.  To prevent this,
      introduce a new server parameter restrict_nonsystem_relation_kind that
      can disable expansion of non-builtin views as well as access to foreign
      tables, and teach pg_dump to set it when available.  Note that the
      attack is prevented only if both pg_dump and the server it is dumping
      from are new enough to have this fix.

      The PostgreSQL Project thanks Noah Misch for reporting this problem.

  * New upstream version.

    + Restrict visibility of pg_stats_ext and pg_stats_ext_exprs entries to
      the table owner (Nathan Bossart)

      These views failed to hide statistics for expressions that involve
      columns the accessing user does not have permission to read.  View
      columns such as most_common_vals might expose security-relevant data.
      The potential interactions here are not fully clear, so in the interest
      of erring on the side of safety, make rows in these views visible only
      to the owner of the associated table.

      The PostgreSQL Project thanks Lukas Fittl for reporting this problem.
      (CVE-2024-4317)

      By itself, this fix will only fix the behavior in newly initdb'd
      database clusters.  If you wish to apply this change in an existing
      cluster, you will need to do the following:

        In each database of the cluster, run the fix-CVE-2024-4317.sql script
        as superuser. In psql this would look like
          \i /usr/share/postgresql/16/fix-CVE-2024-4317.sql
        Any error probably indicates that you've used the wrong script
        version.  It will not hurt to run the script more than once.

        Do not forget to include the template0 and template1 databases, or the
        vulnerability will still exist in databases you create later.  To fix
        template0, you'll need to temporarily make it accept connections.  Do
        that with
          ALTER DATABASE template0 WITH ALLOW_CONNECTIONS true;
        and then after fixing template0, undo it with
          ALTER DATABASE template0 WITH ALLOW_CONNECTIONS false;

    * Tighten security restrictions within REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW
      CONCURRENTLY (Heikki Linnakangas)

      One step of a concurrent refresh command was run under weak security
      restrictions.  If a materialized view's owner could persuade a superuser
      or other high-privileged user to perform a concurrent refresh on that
      view, the view's owner could control code executed with the privileges
      of the user running REFRESH. Fix things so that all user-determined code
      is run as the view's owner, as expected.

      The only known exploit for this error does not work in PostgreSQL 16.0
      and later, so it may be that v16 is not vulnerable in practice.

    * Fix handling of unknown-type arguments in DISTINCT "any" aggregate
      functions (Tom Lane)

      This error led to a text-type value being interpreted as an unknown-type
      value (that is, a zero-terminated string) at runtime.  This could result
      in disclosure of server memory following the text value.

    * Detect integer overflow while computing new array dimensions
      (Tom Lane)

      When assigning new elements to array subscripts that are outside the
      current array bounds, an undetected integer overflow could occur in edge
      cases.  Memory stomps that are potentially exploitable for arbitrary
      code execution are possible, and so is disclosure of server memory.

      The PostgreSQL Project thanks Pedro Gallegos for reporting this problem.
      (CVE-2023-5869)

    * Prevent the pg_signal_backend role from signalling background workers
      and autovacuum processes (Noah Misch, Jelte Fennema-Nio)

      The documentation says that pg_signal_backend
      cannot issue signals to superuser-owned processes.  It was able to
      signal these background processes, though, because they advertise a
      role OID of zero.  Treat that as indicating superuser ownership.
      The security implications of cancelling one of these process types
      are fairly small so far as the core code goes (we'll just start
      another one), but extensions might add background workers that are
      more vulnerable.

      Also ensure that the is_superuser parameter is set correctly in such
      processes.  No specific security consequences are known for that
      oversight, but it might be significant for some extensions.

      The PostgreSQL Project thanks Hemanth Sandrana and Mahendrakar
      Srinivasarao for reporting this problem. (CVE-2023-5870)

    * Fix misbehavior during recursive page split in GiST index build
      (Heikki Linnakangas)

      Fix a case where the location of a page downlink was incorrectly
      tracked, and introduce some logic to allow recovering from such
      situations rather than silently doing the wrong thing.  This error could
      result in incorrect answers from subsequent index searches. It may be
      advisable to reindex all GiST indexes after installing this update.

    * Prevent de-duplication of btree index entries for interval columns

      There are interval values that are distinguishable but compare equal,
      for example 24:00:00 and 1 day.  This breaks assumptions made by btree
      de-duplication, so interval columns need to be excluded from
      de-duplication.  This oversight can cause incorrect results from
      index-only scans.  Moreover, after updating amcheck will report an error
      for almost all such indexes.  Users should reindex any btree indexes on
      interval columns.
