OpenSSL 1.1.1 and newer versions have added support for RSA-PSS certificates, which requires the use of a specific routine in OpenSSL to determine which hash function to use when compiling it when using channel binding in SCRAM-SHA-256. X509_get_signature_nid(), that is the original routine the channel binding code has relied on, is not able to determine which hash algorithm to use for such certificates. However, X509_get_signature_info(), new to OpenSSL 1.1.1, is able to do it. This commit switches the channel binding logic to rely on X509_get_signature_info() over X509_get_signature_nid(), which would be the choice when building with 1.1.1 or newer. The error could have been triggered on the client or the server, hence libpq and the backend need to have their related code paths patched. Note that attempting to load an RSA-PSS certificate with OpenSSL 1.1.0 or older leads to a failure due to an unsupported algorithm. The discovery of relying on X509_get_signature_info() comes from Jacob, the tests have been written by Heikki (with few tweaks from me), while I have bundled the whole together while adding the bits needed for MSVC and meson. This issue exists since channel binding exists, so backpatch all the way down. Some tests are added in 15~, triggered if compiling with OpenSSL 1.1.1 or newer, where the certificate and key files can easily be generated for RSA-PSS.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
