| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | supported versions of our database system, including 12.2, 11.7, 10.12, 9.6.17, 9.5.21, and 9.4.26. This release fixes one security issue found in the PostgreSQL server and over 75 bugs reported over the last three months. Users should plan to update as soon as possible. PostgreSQL 9.4 Now EOL This is the last release for PostgreSQL 9.4, which will no longer receive security updates and bug fixes. PostgreSQL 9.4 introduced new features such as JSONB support, the `ALTER SYSTEM` command, the ability to stream logical changes to an output plugin, and more: https://www.postgresql.org/about/news/1557/ https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/release-9-4.html While we are very proud of this release, these features are also found in newer versions of PostgreSQL. Many of these features have also received improvements, and, per our versioning policy, it is time to retire PostgreSQL 9.4. To receive continued support, we suggest that you make plans to upgrade to a newer, supported version of PostgreSQL. Please see the PostgreSQL versioning policy for more information. Security Issues * CVE-2020-1720: `ALTER ... DEPENDS ON EXTENSION` is missing authorization checks. Versions Affected: 9.6 - 12 The `ALTER ... DEPENDS ON EXTENSION` sub-commands do not perform authorization checks, which can allow an unprivileged user to drop any function, procedure, materialized view, index, or trigger under certain conditions. This attack is possible if an administrator has installed an extension and an unprivileged user can `CREATE`, or an extension owner either executes `DROP EXTENSION` predictably or can be convinced to execute `DROP EXTENSION`.

* Upgrade PostgreSQLPalle Girgensohn2019-11-141-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all supported versions of our database system, including 12.1, 11.6, 10.11, 9.6.16, 9.5.20, and 9.4.25. This release fixes over 50 bugs reported over the last three months. PostgreSQL 9.4 will stop receiving fixes on February 13, 2020, which is the next planned cumulative update release. We suggest that you make plans to upgrade to a newer, supported version of PostgreSQL. Please see our versioning policy for more information: This update also fixes over 50 bugs that were reported in the last several months. Some of these issues affect only version 12, but may also affect all supported versions. Specific change to the FreeBSD port: Starting now, the default for TZDATA has changed to using the underlying OS' time zone database instead of the one built in to PostgreSQL. This change is made since PostgreSQL will not release a patch in the event where the time zone database changes, whereas FreeBSD will.

This release fixes two security issues in the PostgreSQL server, two security issues found in one of the PostgreSQL Windows installers, and over 40 bugs reported since the previous release. Users should install these updates as soon as possible. A Note on the PostgreSQL 12 Beta ================================ In the spirit of the open source PostgreSQL community, we strongly encourage you to test the new features of PostgreSQL 12 in your database systems to help us eliminate any bugs or other issues that may exist. While we do not advise you to run PostgreSQL 12 Beta 3 in your production environments, we encourage you to find ways to run your typical application workloads against this beta release. Your testing and feedback will help the community ensure that the PostgreSQL 12 release upholds our standards of providing a stable, reliable release of the world's most advanced open source relational database. Security Issues =============== Two security vulnerabilities have been closed by this release: * CVE-2019-10208: `TYPE` in `pg_temp` executes arbitrary SQL during `SECURITY DEFINER` execution Versions Affected: 9.4 - 11 Given a suitable `SECURITY DEFINER` function, an attacker can execute arbitrary SQL under the identity of the function owner. An attack requires `EXECUTE` permission on the function, which must itself contain a function call having inexact argument type match. For example, `length('foo'::varchar)` and `length('foo')` are inexact, while `length('foo'::text)` is exact. As part of exploiting this vulnerability, the attacker uses `CREATE DOMAIN` to create a type in a `pg_temp` schema. The attack pattern and fix are similar to that for CVE-2007-2138. Writing `SECURITY DEFINER` functions continues to require following the considerations noted in the documentation: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/sql-createfunction.html#SQL-CREATEFUNCTION-SECURITY The PostgreSQL project thanks Tom Lane for reporting this problem. * CVE-2019-10209: Memory disclosure in cross-type comparison for hashed subplan Versions Affected: 11 In a database containing hypothetical, user-defined hash equality operators, an attacker could read arbitrary bytes of server memory. For an attack to become possible, a superuser would need to create unusual operators. It is possible for operators not purpose-crafted for attack to have the properties that enable an attack, but we are not aware of specific examples. The PostgreSQL project thanks Andreas Seltenreich for reporting this problem. Notes: svn path=/head/; revision=508390
* Upgrade PostgreSQL to latest versionPalle Girgensohn2019-06-271-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all supported versions of our database system, including 11.4, 10.9, 9.6.14, 9.5.18, and 9.4.23, as well as the second beta of PostgreSQL 12. This release fixes one security issue and over 25 bugs since the previous cumulative update in May. This release is made outside of the normal update release schedule as the security vulnerability was determined to be critical enough to distribute the fix as quickly as possible. Users who are running PostgreSQL 10, PostgreSQL 11, or the PostgreSQL 12 beta should upgrade as soon as possible. All other users should plan to apply this update at the next scheduled downtime.

This release fixes two security issues in the PostgreSQL server, a security issue found in two of the PostgreSQL Windows installers, and over 60 bugs reported over the last three months. Security: CVE-2019-10129: Memory disclosure in partition routing Prior to this release, a user running PostgreSQL 11 can read arbitrary bytes of server memory by executing a purpose-crafted INSERT statement to a partitioned table. Security: CVE-2019-10130: Selectivity estimators bypass row security policies PostgreSQL maintains statistics for tables by sampling data available in columns; this data is consulted during the query planning process. Prior to this release, a user able to execute SQL queries with permissions to read a given column could craft a leaky operator that could read whatever data had been sampled from that column. If this happened to include values from rows that the user is forbidden to see by a row security policy, the user could effectively bypass the policy. This is fixed by only allowing a non-leakproof operator to use this data if there are no relevant row security policies for the table. This issue is present in PostgreSQL 9.5, 9.6, 10, and 11. The PostgreSQL project thanks Dean Rasheed for reporting this problem.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | supported versions of our database system, including 11.2, 10.7, 9.6.12, 9.5.16, and 9.4.21. This release changes the behavior in how PostgreSQL interfaces with `fsync()` and includes fixes for partitioning and over 70 other bugs that were reported over the past three months. Users should plan to apply this update at the next scheduled downtime. FreeBSD port adds OPTIONS knob to support LLVM JIT. [1] Highlight: Change in behavior with fsync() ------------------------------------------ When available in an operating system and enabled in the configuration file (which it is by default), PostgreSQL uses the kernel function `fsync()` to help ensure that data is written to a disk. In some operating systems that provide `fsync()`, when the kernel is unable to write out the data, it returns a failure and flushes the data that was supposed to be written from its data buffers. This flushing operation has an unfortunate side-effect for PostgreSQL: if PostgreSQL tries again to write the data to disk by again calling `fsync()`, `fsync()` will report back that it succeeded, but the data that PostgreSQL believed to be saved to the disk would not actually be written. This presents a possible data corruption scenario. This update modifies how PostgreSQL handles a `fsync()` failure: PostgreSQL will no longer retry calling `fsync()` but instead will panic. In this case, PostgreSQL can then replay the data from the write-ahead log (WAL) to help ensure the data is written. While this may appear to be a suboptimal solution, there are presently few alternatives and, based on reports, the problem case occurs extremely rarely. A new server parameter `data_sync_retry` has been added to manage this behavior. If you are certain that your kernel does not discard dirty data buffers in such scenarios, you can set `data_sync_retry` to `on` to restore the old behavior.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Data Corruption Fix For users of PostgreSQL versions 9.3 or 9.4, this release fixes a problem where the database will fail to protect against "multixact wraparound", resulting in data corruption or loss. Users with a high transaction rate (1 million or more per hour) in a database with many foreign keys are especially vulnerable. We strongly urge all users of 9.4 and 9.3 to update their installations in the next few days. Users of versions 9.2 and earlier are not affected by this issue.

* The PostgreSQL Global Development Group announced that the first betaPalle Girgensohn2014-05-181-0/+4
release of PostgreSQL 9.4, the latest version of the world's leading open source database, is available today. This beta contains previews of all of the features which will be available in version 9.4, and is ready for testing by the worldwide PostgreSQL community. Please download, test, and report what you find. Major Features -------------- The new major features available for testing in this beta include: * JSONB: 9.4 includes the new JSONB "binary JSON" type. This new storage format for document data is higher-performance, and comes with indexing, functions and operators for manipulating JSON data. * Replication: The new Data Change Streaming API allows decoding and transformation of the replication stream. This lays the foundation for new replication tools that support high-speed and more flexible replication and scale-out solutions. * Materialized Views with "Refresh Concurrently", which permit fast-response background summary reports for complex data. * ALTER SYSTEM SET, which enables modifications to postgresql.conf from the SQL command line and from remote clients, easing administration tasks.
