This corrects cases where TOAST pointers could be copied into other

Block signals during postmaster startup (Tom Lane)

This ensures that the postmaster will properly clean up after itself

Secure Unix-domain sockets of temporary postmasters started during
|
||||||
|
<literal>make check</> (Noah Misch)
|
||||||
|
</para>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<para>
|
||||||
|
Any local user able to access the socket file could connect as the
|
||||||
|
server's bootstrap superuser, then proceed to execute arbitrary code as
|
||||||
|
the operating-system user running the test, as we previously noted in
|
||||||
|
CVE-2014-0067. This change defends against that risk by placing the
|
||||||
|
server's socket in a temporary, mode 0700 subdirectory
|
||||||
|
of <filename>/tmp</>. The hazard remains however on platforms where
|
||||||
|
Unix sockets are not supported, notably Windows, because then the
|
||||||
|
temporary postmaster must accept local TCP connections.
|
||||||
|
</para>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<para>
|
||||||
|
A useful side effect of this change is to simplify
|
||||||
|
<literal>make check</> testing in builds that
|
||||||
|
override <literal>DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR</>. Popular non-default values
|
||||||
|
like <filename>/var/run/postgresql</> are often not writable by the
|
||||||
|
build user, requiring workarounds that will no longer be necessary.

Avoid buffer bloat in <application>libpq</> when the server

<para>
|

<application>libpq</> could be coerced into enlarging its input buffer

until it runs out of memory (which would be reported misleadingly

as <quote>lost synchronization with server</>). Under ordinary

|
circumstances it's quite far-fetched that data could be continuously
|
||||||
|
transmitted more quickly than the <function>recv()</> loop can
|
||||||
|
absorb it, but this has been observed when the client is artificially
|
||||||
|
slowed by scheduler constraints.

Secure Unix-domain sockets of temporary postmasters started during

<literal>make check</> (Noah Misch)
|

|
</para>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<para>
|

|
Any local user able to access the socket file could connect as the
|
||||||
|
server's bootstrap superuser, then proceed to execute arbitrary code as
|
||||||
|
the operating-system user running the test, as we previously noted in
|
||||||
|
CVE-2014-0067. This change defends against that risk by placing the
|
||||||
|
server's socket in a temporary, mode 0700 subdirectory
|
||||||
|
of <filename>/tmp</>. The hazard remains however on platforms where
|
||||||
|
Unix sockets are not supported, notably Windows, because then the
|
||||||
|
temporary postmaster must accept local TCP connections.
|
||||||
|
</para>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<para>
|
||||||
|
A useful side effect of this change is to simplify
|
||||||
|
<literal>make check</> testing in builds that
|
||||||
|
override <literal>DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR</>. Popular non-default values
|
||||||
|
like <filename>/var/run/postgresql</> are often not writable by the
|
||||||
|
build user, requiring workarounds that will no longer be necessary.

Secure Unix-domain sockets of temporary postmasters started during

<literal>make check</> (Noah Misch)
|

|
</para>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<para>
|
||||||
|
Any local user able to access the socket file could connect as the
|
||||||
|
server's bootstrap superuser, then proceed to execute arbitrary code as
|
||||||
|
the operating-system user running the test, as we previously noted in
|
||||||
|
CVE-2014-0067. This change defends against that risk by placing the
|
||||||
|
server's socket in a temporary, mode 0700 subdirectory
|
||||||
|
of <filename>/tmp</>. The hazard remains however on platforms where
|
||||||
|
Unix sockets are not supported, notably Windows, because then the
|
||||||
|
temporary postmaster must accept local TCP connections.
|
||||||
|
</para>
|

|
|

<para>

A useful side effect of this change is to simplify

<literal>make check</> testing in builds that

|
override <literal>DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR</>. Popular non-default values
|
||||||
|
like <filename>/var/run/postgresql</> are often not writable by the
|
||||||
|
build user, requiring workarounds that will no longer be necessary.

Secure Unix-domain sockets of temporary postmasters started during

<literal>make check</> (Noah Misch)
|
||||||
|
</para>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<para>
|

|
Any local user able to access the socket file could connect as the
|
||||||
|
server's bootstrap superuser, then proceed to execute arbitrary code as
|
||||||
|
the operating-system user running the test, as we previously noted in
|
||||||
|
CVE-2014-0067. This change defends against that risk by placing the
|
||||||
|
server's socket in a temporary, mode 0700 subdirectory
|
||||||
|
of <filename>/tmp</>. The hazard remains however on platforms where
|
||||||
|
Unix sockets are not supported, notably Windows, because then the
|
||||||
|
temporary postmaster must accept local TCP connections.
|
||||||
|
</para>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<para>
|
||||||
|
A useful side effect of this change is to simplify
|
||||||
|
<literal>make check</> testing in builds that
|
||||||
|
override <literal>DEFAULT_PGSOCKET_DIR</>. Popular non-default values
|
||||||
|
like <filename>/var/run/postgresql</> are often not writable by the
|
||||||
|
build user, requiring workarounds that will no longer be necessary.
