Start the file with static functions not specific to pe_test_vectors tests. This way, new tests can use them without disrupting the file's layout. Change report_result() PQExpBuffer arguments to plain strings. Back-patch to v13 (all supported versions), for the next commit.

With GB18030 as source encoding, applications could crash the server via SQL functions convert() or convert_from(). Applications themselves could crash after passing unterminated GB18030 input to libpq functions PQescapeLiteral(), PQescapeIdentifier(), PQescapeStringConn(), or PQescapeString(). Extension code could crash by passing unterminated GB18030 input to jsonapi.h functions. All those functions have been intended to handle untrusted, unterminated input safely. A crash required allocating the input such that the last byte of the allocation was the last byte of a virtual memory page. Some malloc() implementations take measures against that, making the SIGSEGV hard to reach. Back-patch to v13 (all supported versions).

Commit e2d4ef8 (the fix for CVE-2017-7484) added security checks to the selectivity estimation functions to prevent them from running user-supplied operators on data obtained from pg_statistic if the user lacks privileges to select from the underlying table. In cases involving inheritance/partitioning, those checks were originally performed against the child RTE (which for plain inheritance might actually refer to the parent table). Commit 553d2ec then extended that to also check the parent RTE, allowing access if the user had permissions on either the parent or the child. It turns out, however, that doing any checks using the child RTE is incorrect, since securityQuals is set to NULL when creating an RTE for an inheritance child (whether it refers to the parent table or the child table), and therefore such checks do not correctly account for any RLS policies or security barrier views. Therefore, do the security checks using only the parent RTE. This is consistent with how RLS policies are applied, and the executor's ACL checks, both of which use only the parent table's permissions/policies. Similar checks are performed in the extended stats code, so update that in the same way, centralizing all the checks in a new function. In addition, note that these checks by themselves are insufficient to ensure that the user has access to the table's data because, in a query that goes via a view, they only check that the view owner has permissions on the underlying table, not that the current user has permissions on the view itself. In the selectivity estimation functions, there is no easy way to navigate from underlying tables to views, so add permissions checks for all views mentioned in the query to the planner startup code. If the user lacks permissions on a view, a permissions error will now be reported at planner-startup, and the selectivity estimation functions will not be run. Checking view permissions at planner-startup in this way is a little ugly, since the same checks will be repeated at executor-startup. Longer-term, it might be better to move all the permissions checks from the executor to the planner so that permissions errors can be reported sooner, instead of creating a plan that won't ever be run. However, such a change seems too far-reaching to be back-patched. Back-patch to all supported versions. In v13, there is the added complication that UPDATEs and DELETEs on inherited target tables are planned using inheritance_planner(), which plans each inheritance child table separately, so that the selectivity estimation functions do not know that they are dealing with a child table accessed via its parent. Handle that by checking access permissions on the top parent table at planner-startup, in the same way as we do for views. Any securityQuals on the top parent table are moved down to the child tables by inheritance_planner(), so they continue to be checked by the selectivity estimation functions.

pg_rewind and pg_basebackup could be fed paths from rogue endpoints that could overwrite the contents of the client when received, achieving path traversal. There were two areas in the tree that were sensitive to this problem: - pg_basebackup, through the astreamer code, where no validation was performed before building an output path when streaming tar data. This is an issue in v15 and newer versions. - pg_rewind file operations for paths received through libpq, for all the stable branches supported. In order to address this problem, this commit adds a helper function in path.c, that reuses path_is_relative_and_below_cwd() after applying canonicalize_path(). This can be used to validate the paths received from a connection point. A path is considered invalid if any of the two following conditions is satisfied: - The path is absolute. - The path includes a direct parent-directory reference.

When result_is_int is set to 0, PQfn() cannot validate that the result fits in result_buf, so it will write data beyond the end of the buffer when the server returns more data than requested. Since this function is insecurable and obsolete, add a warning to the top of the pertinent documentation advising against its use. The only in-tree caller of PQfn() is the frontend large object interface. To fix that, add a buf_size parameter to pqFunctionCall3() that is used to protect against overruns, and use it in a private version of PQfn() that also accepts a buf_size parameter.

Maliciously crafted key value updates could achieve SQL injection within check_foreign_key(). To fix, ensure new key values are properly quoted and escaped in the internally generated SQL statements. While at it, avoid potential buffer overruns by replacing the stack buffers for internally generated SQL statements with StringInfo.

When an UPDATE statement triggers check_foreign_key() with the action set to "cascade", it generates more UPDATE statements to modify the key values in referencing relations. If a new key value is NULL, SPI_getvalue() returns a NULL pointer, which is subsequently passed to quote_literal_cstr(), causing a segfault. To fix, skip quoting when a new key value is NULL and insert an unquoted NULL keyword instead. Oversight in commit 260e977. While the refint documentation recommends marking primary key columns NOT NULL, the aforementioned scenario accidentally worked on platforms where snprintf() substitutes "(null)" for NULL pointers. Note that for character-type columns, the old code quoted "(null)" as a string literal, so this didn't always produce correct results. But it still seems better to fix this than to reject cases that previously worked.
