delta/postgresql.git/contrib/adminpack/adminpack.control, branch master git.postgresql.org: git/postgresql.git Add pg_file_sync() to adminpack extension. 2020-01-24T11:42:52+00:00 Fujii Masao fujii@postgresql.org 2020-01-24T11:42:52+00:00 d694e0bb793ebd6b392e6ef6a3b0a59ae66cbc95 This function allows us to fsync the specified file or directory. It's useful, for example, when we want to sync the file that pg_file_write() writes out or that COPY TO exports the data into, for durability.

adminpack: Revoke EXECUTE on pg_logfile_rotate() 2018-05-07T14:10:33+00:00 Stephen Frost sfrost@snowman.net 2018-05-07T14:10:33+00:00 7b347409fa2776fbaa4ec9c57365f48a2bbdb80c In 9.6, we moved a number of functions over to using the GRANT system to control access instead of having hard-coded superuser checks. As it turns out, adminpack was creating another function in the catalog for one of those backend functions where the superuser check was removed, specifically pg_rotate_logfile(), but it didn't get the memo about having to REVOKE EXECUTE on the alternative-name function (pg_logfile_rotate()), meaning that in any installations with adminpack on 9.6 and higher, any user is able to run the pg_logfile_rotate() function, which then calls pg_rotate_logfile() and rotates the logfile. Fix by adding a new version of adminpack (1.1) which handles the REVOKE. As this function should have only been available to the superuser, this is a security issue, albeit a minor one. In HEAD, move the changes implemented for adminpack up to be adminpack 2.0 instead of 1.1. Security: CVE-2018-1115 
In 9.6, we moved a number of functions over to using the GRANT system to
control access instead of having hard-coded superuser checks.

for one of those backend functions where the superuser check was
removed, specifically pg_rotate_logfile(), but it didn't get the memo
about having to REVOKE EXECUTE on the alternative-name function
(pg_logfile_rotate()), meaning that in any installations with adminpack
on 9.6 and higher, any user is able to run the pg_logfile_rotate()
function, which then calls pg_rotate_logfile() and rotates the logfile.

Support new default roles with adminpack 2018-04-06T18:47:10+00:00 Stephen Frost sfrost@snowman.net 2018-04-06T18:47:10+00:00 11523e860f8fe29f9142fb63c44e01cd0d5e7375 This provides a newer version of adminpack which works with the newly added default roles to support GRANT'ing to non-superusers access to read and write files, along with related functions (unlinking files, getting file length, renaming/removing files, scanning the log file directory) which are supported through adminpack. Note that new versions of the functions are required because an environment might have an updated version of the library but still have the old adminpack 1.0 catalog definitions (where EXECUTE is GRANT'd to PUBLIC for the functions). This patch also removes the long-deprecated alternative names for functions that adminpack used to include and which are now included in the backend, in adminpack v1.1. Applications using the deprecated names should be updated to use the backend functions instead. Existing installations which continue to use adminpack v1.0 should continue to function until/unless adminpack is upgraded.

Convert contrib modules to use the extension facility. 2011-02-14T03:54:49+00:00 Tom Lane tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us 2011-02-14T01:06:41+00:00 629b3af27d5c2bc9d6e16b22b943ad651d4ecb56 This isn't fully tested as yet, in particular I'm not sure that the "foo--unpackaged--1.0.sql" scripts are OK. But it's time to get some buildfarm cycles on it. sepgsql is not converted to an extension, mainly because it seems to require a very nonstandard installation process. Dimitri Fontaine and Tom Lane
