   <para>
    However, note that installations using physical replication should
    update standby servers before the primary server, as explained in
    the third changelog entry below.

   <para>
    Also, several bugs have been found that may have resulted in corrupted
    indexes, as explained in the next several changelog entries.  If any
    of those cases apply to you, it's recommended to reindex
    possibly-affected indexes after updating.

      Make the server reject extraneous data after an SSL or GSS
      encryption handshake (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      A man-in-the-middle with the ability to inject data into the TCP
      connection could stuff some cleartext data into the start of a
      supposedly encryption-protected database session.
      This could be abused to send faked SQL commands to the server,
      although that would only work if the server did not demand any
      authentication data.  (However, a server relying on SSL certificate
      authentication might well not do so.)

      Make <application>libpq</application> reject extraneous data after

     </para>

     <para>
      A man-in-the-middle with the ability to inject data into the TCP
      connection could stuff some cleartext data into the start of a
      supposedly encryption-protected database session.
      This could probably be abused to inject faked responses to the
      client's first few queries, although other details of libpq's
      behavior make that harder than it sounds.  A different line of
      attack is to exfiltrate the client's password, or other sensitive
      data that might be sent early in the session.  That has been shown
      to be possible with a server vulnerable to CVE-2021-23214.

      Fix physical replication for cases where the primary crashes
      after shipping a WAL segment that ends with a partial WAL record
      (&Aacute;lvaro Herrera)
     </para>

     <para>
      If the primary did not survive long enough to finish writing the
      rest of the incomplete WAL record, then the previous crash-recovery
      logic had it back up and overwrite WAL starting from the beginning
      of the incomplete WAL record.  This is problematic since standby
      servers may already have copies of that WAL segment.  They will then
      see an inconsistent next segment, and will not be able to recover
      without manual intervention.  To fix, do not back up over a WAL
      segment boundary when restarting after a crash.  Instead write a new
      type of WAL record at the start of the next WAL segment, informing
      readers that the incomplete WAL record will never be finished and
      must be disregarded.
     </para>

     <para>
      When applying this update, it's best to update standby servers
      before the primary, so that they will be ready to handle this new
      WAL record type if the primary happens to crash.

      Fix <command>CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY</command> to wait for

     </para>

     <para>
      Rows inserted by just-prepared transactions might be omitted from
      the new index, causing queries relying on the index to miss such
      rows.  The previous fix for this type of problem failed to account
      for <command>PREPARE TRANSACTION</command> commands that were still
      in progress when <command>CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY</command>
      checked for them.  As before, in installations that have enabled
      prepared transactions (<varname>max_prepared_transactions</varname>
      &gt; 0), it's recommended to reindex any concurrently-built indexes
      in case this problem occurred when they were built.

      Fix <type>float4</type> and <type>float8</type> hash functions to
      produce uniform results for NaNs (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      Since <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>'s floating-point types
      deem all NaNs to be equal, it's important for the hash functions to
      produce the same hash code for all bit-patterns that are NaNs
      according to the IEEE 754 standard.  This failed to happen before,
      meaning that hash indexes and hash-based query plans might produce
      incorrect results for non-canonical NaN values.
      (<literal>'-NaN'::float8</literal> is one way to produce such a
      value on most machines.)  It is advisable to reindex hash indexes
      on floating-point columns, if there is any possibility that they
      might contain such values.

      Prevent data loss during crash recovery of <command>CREATE
      TABLESPACE</command>, when <varname>wal_level</varname>
      = <literal>minimal</literal> (Noah Misch)
     </para>

     <para>
      If the server crashed between <command>CREATE TABLESPACE</command>
      and the next checkpoint, replay would fully remove the contents of
      the new tablespace's directory, relying on subsequent WAL replay
      to restore everything within that directory.  This interacts badly
      with optimizations that skip writing WAL (one example
      is <command>COPY</command> into a just-created table).  Such
      optimizations are applied only when <varname>wal_level</varname>
      is <literal>minimal</literal>, which is not the default in v10 and
      later.

      Don't discard a cast to the same type with unspecified type modifier

     <para>
      For example, if column <literal>f1</literal> is of
      type <literal>numeric(18,3)</literal>, the parser used to simply
      discard a cast like <literal>f1::numeric</literal>, on the grounds
      that it would have no run-time effect.  That's true, but the exposed
      type of the expression should still be considered to be
      plain <literal>numeric</literal>,
      not <literal>numeric(18,3)</literal>.  This is important for
      correctly resolving the type of larger constructs, such
      as recursive <literal>UNION</literal>s.

      Disallow creating an ICU collation if the current database's

     <para>
      Previously this was allowed, but then the collation could not be

      Avoid regular expression errors with capturing parentheses

     </para>

     <para>
      Regular expressions like <literal>(.){0}...\1</literal> drew
      <quote>invalid backreference number</quote>.  Other regexp engines
      such as Perl don't complain, though, and for that matter ours
      doesn't either in some closely related cases.  Worse, it could throw
      an assertion failure instead.  Fix it so that no error is thrown and
      instead the back-reference is silently deemed to never match.

      Prevent regular expression back-references from sometimes matching
      when they shouldn't (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      The regexp engine was careless about clearing match data
      for capturing parentheses after rejecting a partial match.  This
      could allow a later back-reference to match in places where it
      should fail for lack of a defined referent.

      Make <application>pg_dump</application> acquire shared lock on

      This oversight was usually pretty harmless, since
      once <application>pg_dump</application> has locked any of the leaf
      partitions, that would suffice to prevent significant DDL on the
      partitioned table itself.  However problems could ensue when dumping
      a childless partitioned table, since no relevant lock would be held.

      Use the CLDR project's data to map Windows time zone names to IANA
      time zones (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      When running on Windows, <application>initdb</application> attempts
      to set the new cluster's <varname>timezone</varname> parameter to
      the IANA time zone matching the system's prevailing time zone.
      We were using a mapping table that we'd generated years ago and
      updated only fitfully; unsurprisingly, it contained a number of
      errors as well as omissions of recently-added zones.  It turns out
      that CLDR has been tracking the most appropriate mappings, so start
      using their data.  This change will not affect any existing
      installation, only newly-initialized clusters.

      Disallow SSL renegotiation more completely (Michael Paquier)
     </para>

     <para>
      SSL renegotiation has been disabled for some time, but the server
      would still cooperate with a client-initiated renegotiation request.
      A maliciously crafted renegotiation request could result in a server
      crash (see OpenSSL issue CVE-2021-3449).  Disable the feature
      altogether on OpenSSL versions that permit doing so, which are
      1.1.0h and newer.

     <para>
      This avoids failures when dealing with index predicates that aren't
      really immutable.  While that's not considered a supported case, the
      original reason for using a non-transactional update here is long
      gone, so we may as well change it.

      Update minimum recovery point when WAL replay of a transaction abort

     <para>
      File truncation is irreversible, so it's no longer safe to stop
      recovery at a point earlier than that record.  The corresponding
      case for transaction commit was fixed years ago, but this one was
      overlooked.

      Prevent infinite loops in SP-GiST index insertion (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      In the event that INCLUDE columns take up enough space to prevent a
      leaf index tuple from ever fitting on a page, the text_ops operator
      class would get into an infinite loop vainly trying to make the
      tuple fit.
      While pre-v11 versions don't have INCLUDE columns, back-patch this
      anti-looping fix to them anyway, as it seems like a good defense
      against bugs in operator classes.

      In <application>psql</application> and other client programs, avoid
      overrunning the ends of strings when dealing with invalidly-encoded
      data (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      An incorrectly-encoded multibyte character near the end of a string
      could cause various processing loops to run past the string's
      terminating NUL, with results ranging from no detectable issue to
      a program crash, depending on what happens to be in the following
      memory.  This is reminiscent of CVE-2006-2313, although these

      Make <application>pg_upgrade</application> carry forward the old

     </para>

     <para>
      Previously, the new installation's <literal>oldestXID</literal> was
      set to a value old enough to (usually) force immediate
      anti-wraparound autovacuuming.  That's not desirable from a
      performance standpoint; what's worse, installations using large
      values of <varname>autovacuum_freeze_max_age</varname> could suffer
      unwanted forced shutdowns soon after an upgrade.

      In <filename>contrib/postgres_fdw</filename>, avoid attempting

     </para>

     <para>
      While this usually worked, it's not very safe since the error might
      have been one that made catalog access nonfunctional.  A side effect
      of the fix is that messages about data conversion errors will now
      mention the query's table and column aliases (if used) rather than
      the true underlying name of a foreign table or column.

      Improve the isolation-test infrastructure (Tom Lane, Michael Paquier)
     </para>

     <para>
      Allow isolation test steps to be annotated to show the expected
      completion order.  This allows getting stable results from
      otherwise-racy test cases, without the long delays that we
      previously used (not entirely successfully) to fend off race
      conditions.
      Allow non-quoted identifiers as isolation test session/step names
      (formerly, all such names had to be double-quoted).
      Detect and warn about unused steps in isolation tests.
      Improve display of query results in isolation tests.
      Remove isolationtester's <quote>dry-run</quote> mode.
      Remove memory leaks in isolationtester itself.

     <para>
      The GSSAPI spec provides for a string pointer and length.  It seems
      that in practice the next byte after the string is usually zero,
      so that our previous coding didn't actually fail; but we do have
      a report of AddressSanitizer complaints.

      Prevent integer overflows in array subscripting calculations
      (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      The array code previously did not complain about cases where an
      array's lower bound plus length overflows an integer.  This resulted
      in later entries in the array becoming inaccessible (since their
      subscripts could not be written as integers), but more importantly
      it confused subsequent assignment operations.  This could lead to
      memory overwrites, with ensuing crashes or unwanted data
      modifications.

      Fix mishandling of <quote>junk</quote> columns in <literal>INSERT
      ... ON CONFLICT ... UPDATE</literal> target lists (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      If the <literal>UPDATE</literal> list contains any multi-column
      sub-selects (which give rise to junk columns in addition to the
      results proper), the <literal>UPDATE</literal> path would end up
      storing tuples that include the values of the extra junk columns.
      That's fairly harmless in the short run, but if new columns are
      added to the table then the values would become accessible, possibly
      leading to malfunctions if they don't match the datatypes of the
      added columns.
     </para>

     <para>
      In addition, in versions supporting cross-partition updates,
      a cross-partition update triggered by such a case had the reverse
      problem: the junk columns were removed from the target list,
      typically causing an immediate crash due to malfunction of the
      multi-column sub-select mechanism.

     <para>
      When reading a custom-format archive from a non-seekable source,
      <application>pg_restore</application> neglected to check the
      archive version.  If it was fed a newer archive version than it

      Fix detection of some cases where a non-upgradable data type is
      embedded within a container type (such as an array or range).
      Also disallow upgrading when user tables contain columns of
      system-defined composite types, since those types' OIDs are not

      Fix <command>CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY</command> to wait for
      concurrent prepared transactions (Andrey Borodin)
     </para>

     <para>
      At the point where <command>CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY</command>
      waits for all concurrent transactions to complete so that it can see
      rows they inserted, it must also wait for all prepared transactions
      to complete, for the same reason.  Its failure to do so meant that
      rows inserted by prepared transactions might be omitted from the new
      index, causing queries relying on the index to miss such rows.
      In installations that have enabled prepared transactions
      (<varname>max_prepared_transactions</varname> &gt; 0),
      it's recommended to reindex any concurrently-built indexes in
      case this problem occurred when they were built.

     <para>
      A <literal>LIKE</literal> clause is re-examined after initial
      creation of the new table, to handle importation of indexes and
      such.  It was possible for this re-examination to find a different
      table of the same name, causing unexpected behavior; one example is
      where the new table is a temporary table of the same name as
      the <literal>LIKE</literal> target.

      Ensure that disk space allocated for a dropped relation is released

     <para>
      Previously, if the dropped relation spanned multiple 1GB segments,
      only the first segment was truncated immediately.  Other segments
      were simply unlinked, which doesn't authorize the kernel to release
      the storage so long as any other backends still have the files open.

     <para>
      A backslash followed by a multibyte character was not handled
      correctly.  In some client character encodings, this could lead to
      misinterpreting part of a multibyte character as a field separator
      or end-of-copy-data marker.

      handling (Tom Lane)

     <para>
      A newly-listening backend could attempt to read SLRU pages that

     </para>

     <para>
      The queue tail pointer could become
      set to a value that's not equal to the queue position of any
      backend, resulting in effective disabling of the queue truncation
      logic.  Continued use of <command>NOTIFY</command> then led to
      queue-fill warnings, and eventually to inability to send any more
      notifies until the server is restarted.

      We can concatenate two JSON objects or two JSON arrays.  Handle

      combinations of inputs followed this rule but others arbitrarily

      The wraparound point typically falls in the middle of a page, which
      must be rounded off to a page boundary, and that was not done
      correctly.  No issue could arise unless an installation had gotten
      to within one page of SLRU overflow, which is unlikely in a
      properly-functioning system.  If this did happen, it would manifest
      in later <quote>apparent wraparound</quote> or <quote>could not

      Fix miscalculation of timeouts

     <para>
      The main loop in <filename>contrib/pg_prewarm</filename>'s
      autoprewarm parent process underestimated its desired sleep time by
      a factor of 1000, causing it to consume much more CPU than intended.
      When waiting for a result from a remote
      server, <filename>contrib/postgres_fdw</filename> overestimated the
      desired timeout by a factor of 1000 (though this error had been
      mitigated by imposing a clamp to 60 seconds).
     </para>

     <para>
      Both of these errors stemmed from incorrectly converting
      seconds-and-microseconds to milliseconds.  Introduce a new
      API <function>TimestampDifferenceMilliseconds()</function>
      to make it easier to get this right in the future.

      containing multiple connection parameters rather than just a
      database name.  In cases where these programs need to initiate
      additional connections, such as parallel processing or processing of
      multiple databases, the connection string was forgotten and just the
      basic connection parameters (database name, host, port, and
      username) were used for the additional connections.  This could lead
      to connection failures if the connection string included any other
      essential information, such as non-default SSL or GSS parameters.
      Worse, the connection might succeed but not be encrypted as
      intended, or be vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks that the
      intended connection parameters would have prevented.

      When <application>psql</application>'s <command>\connect</command>

     <para>
      This avoids cases where reconnection might fail due to omission of
      relevant parameters, such as non-default SSL or GSS options.
      Worse, the reconnection might succeed but not be encrypted as
      intended, or be vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks that the
      intended connection parameters would have prevented.
      This is largely the same problem as just cited
      for <application>pg_dump</application> et al,
      although <application>psql</application>'s behavior is more complex
      since the user may intentionally override some connection
      parameters.

      However, it appears that calling <function>WSACleanup()</function>

      Set a secure <varname>search_path</varname> in logical replication
      walsenders and apply workers (Noah Misch)
     </para>

     <para>
      A malicious user of either the publisher or subscriber database
      could potentially cause execution of arbitrary SQL code by the role
      running replication, which is often a superuser.  Some of the risks
      here are equivalent to those described in CVE-2018-1058, and are
      mitigated in this patch by ensuring that the replication sender and
      receiver execute with empty <varname>search_path</varname> settings.
      (As with CVE-2018-1058, that change might cause problems for
      under-qualified names used in replicated tables' DDL.)  Other risks
      are inherent in replicating objects that belong to untrusted roles;
      the most we can do is document that there is a hazard to consider.

      Make contrib modules' installation scripts more secure (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      Attacks similar to those described in CVE-2018-1058 could be carried
      out against an extension installation script, if the attacker can
      create objects in either the extension's target schema or the schema
      of some prerequisite extension.  Since extensions often require
      superuser privilege to install, this can open a path to obtaining
      superuser privilege.  To mitigate this risk, be more careful about
      the <varname>search_path</varname> used to run an installation
      script; disable <varname>check_function_bodies</varname> within the
      script; and fix catalog-adjustment queries used in some contrib
      modules to ensure they are secure.  Also provide documentation to
      help third-party extension authors make their installation scripts
      secure.  This is not a complete solution; extensions that depend on
      other extensions can still be at risk if installed carelessly.

      In logical replication walsender, fix failure to send feedback

     </para>

     <para>
      This is a relatively minor problem when using built-in logical
      replication, because the built-in walreceiver will send a feedback
      reply (which clears the incorrect state) fairly frequently anyway.
      But with some other replication systems, such
      as <application>pglogical</application>, it causes significant
      performance issues.

      The phrase-search fix added in our previous set of minor releases
      could cause <function>ts_headline()</function> to take unreasonable
      amounts of time for long documents; to make matters worse, the query
      was not cancellable within the troublesome loop.

      Reject time-of-day values greater than 24 hours (Tom Lane)

     <para>
      The intention of the datetime input code is to
      allow <quote>24:00:00</quote> or
      equivalently <quote>23:59:60</quote>, but no larger value.
      However, the range check was miscoded so that it would
      accept <quote>23:59:60.<replaceable>nnn</replaceable></quote> with
      nonzero fractional-second <replaceable>nnn</replaceable>.  In
      timestamp values this would result in wrapping into the first second
      of the next day.  In <type>time</type> and <type>timetz</type>
      values, the stored value would actually be more than 24 hours,
      causing dump/reload failures and possibly other misbehavior.

     <para>
      The bootstrap catalog data incorrectly marks these two catalog
      columns as always non-null.  There's no easy way to correct that
      mistake in existing installations (though v13 and later will have
      the correct markings).  The main place that depends on that marking
      being correct is JIT-enabled tuple deconstruction, so teach it to
      explicitly ignore the marking for these two columns.  Also adjust
      some C code that accessed <structfield>srsublsn</structfield> without
      checking to see if it's null; a crash from that is improbable but
      perhaps not impossible.

      If a concurrently-inserted tuple was updated by a different

      could draw the wrong conclusions about whether the tuple was relevant

      Logic associated with replication slots had several violations of
      this coding rule.  While the odds of trouble are quite low, an error
      in the called function would lead to a stuck spinlock.

      Fix parallel restore of tables having both table-level privileges
      and per-column privileges (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      The table-level privilege grants have to be applied first, but a
      parallel restore did not reliably order them that way; this could
      lead to <quote>tuple concurrently updated</quote> errors, or to
      disappearance of some per-column privilege grants.  The fix for this
      is to include dependency links between such entries in the archive
      file, meaning that a new dump has to be taken with a
      corrected <application>pg_dump</application> to ensure that the
      problem will not recur.

      Previously, if an <quote>index adviser</quote> extension tried to
      get the planner to produce a plan involving a hypothetical BRIN
      index, that would fail, because the BRIN cost estimation code would
      always try to physically access the index's metapage.  Now it checks
      to see if the index is only hypothetical, and uses default
      assumptions about the index parameters if so.

      Ensure that data types and collations used

     </para>

     <para>
      Previously it was possible to break a view
      using <literal>XMLTABLE</literal> by dropping a type, if the type
      was not otherwise referenced in the view.  This fix does not
      correct the dependencies already recorded for existing views, only
      for newly-created ones.

      Transmit incoming <command>NOTIFY</command> messages to the client
      before sending <literal>ReadyForQuery</literal>, rather than after
      (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      This change ensures that, with libpq and other client libraries that
      act similarly to it, any notifications received during a transaction
      will be available by the time the client thinks the transaction is
      complete.  This probably makes no difference in practical
      applications (which would need to cope with asynchronous
      notifications in any case); but it makes it easier to build test
      cases with reproducible behavior.

      This makes the behavior similar to our SSL support, where it was

      the feature in a particular build.

      On Windows, retry a few times after

      (Alexander Lakhin, Tom Lane)

     <para>
      This helps cope with cases where a file open attempt fails because
      the targeted file is flagged for deletion but not yet actually gone.
      <application>pg_ctl</application>, for example, frequently failed
      with such an error when probing to see if the postmaster had shut
      down yet.

      Avoid logging complaints about abandoned connections when using PAM
      authentication (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      libpq-based clients will typically make two connection attempts when
      a password is required, since they don't prompt their user for a
      password until their first connection attempt fails.  Therefore the
      server is coded not to generate useless log spam when a client
      closes the connection upon being asked for a password.  However,
      the PAM authentication code hadn't gotten that memo, and would
      generate several messages about a phantom authentication failure.

      Fix misbehavior of <function>bitshiftright()</function> (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      The bitstring right shift operator failed to zero out padding space
      that exists in the last byte of the result when the bitstring length
      is not a multiple of 8.  While invisible to most operations, any
      nonzero bits there would result in unexpected comparison behavior,
      since bitstring comparisons don't bother to ignore the extra bits,
      expecting them to always be zero.
     </para>

     <para>
      If you have inconsistent data as a result of saving the output
      of <function>bitshiftright()</function> in a table, it's possible to
      fix it with something like
<programlisting>
UPDATE mytab SET bitcol = ~(~bitcol) WHERE bitcol != ~(~bitcol);
</programlisting>

      Fix incorrect compression logic for GIN posting lists
      (Heikki Linnakangas)
     </para>

     <para>
      A GIN posting list item can require 7 bytes if the distance between
      adjacent indexed TIDs exceeds 16TB.  One step in the logic was out
      of sync with that, and might try to write the value into a 6-byte
      buffer.  In principle this could cause a stack overrun, but on most
      architectures it's likely that the next byte would be unused
      alignment padding, making the bug harmless.  In any case the bug
      would be very difficult to hit.

     <para>
      Ordinarily this is unnecessary since the state would be the same
      anyway.  But it can matter in corner cases, such as where the
      connection might lead to one of several servers.  This change
      causes <application>psql</application> to re-issue any interactive

      whether SSL is in use.

     <para>
      Fix <filename>contrib/intarray</filename>'s GiST opclasses to not
      fail for empty arrays with <literal>&lt;@</literal> (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      A clause like <literal><replaceable>array_column</replaceable>
      &lt;@ <replaceable>constant_array</replaceable></literal> is
      considered indexable, but the index search may not find empty array
      values; of course, such entries should trivially match the search.
     </para>

     <para>
      The only practical back-patchable fix for this requires
      making <literal>&lt;@</literal> index searches scan the whole index,
      which is what this patch does.  This is unfortunate: it means that
      the query performance is likely worse than a plain sequential scan
      would be.
     </para>

     <para>
      Applications whose performance is adversely impacted by this change
      have a couple of options.  They could switch to a GIN index, which
      doesn't have this bug, or they could replace
      <literal><replaceable>array_column</replaceable>
      &lt;@ <replaceable>constant_array</replaceable></literal>
      with <literal><replaceable>array_column</replaceable>
      &lt;@ <replaceable>constant_array</replaceable>
      AND <replaceable>array_column</replaceable>
      &amp;&amp; <replaceable>constant_array</replaceable></literal>.
      That will provide about the same performance as before, and it will
      find all non-empty subsets of the given constant array, which is all
      that could reliably be expected of the query before.

      Ensure correct code generation for spinlocks on PowerPC (Noah Misch)
     </para>

     <para>
      The previous spinlock coding allowed the compiler to select register
      zero for use with an assembly instruction that does not accept that
      register, causing a build failure.  We have seen only one long-ago
      report that matches this bug, but it could cause problems for people
      trying to build modified <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> code
      or use atypical compiler options.

      Require schema qualification to cast to a temporary type when using
      functional cast syntax (Noah Misch)

     <para>
      We have long required invocations of temporary functions to

      Require this as well for casting to temporary types using functional
      notation, for
      example <literal>pg_temp.<replaceable>type_name</replaceable>(<replaceable>arg</replaceable>)</literal>.
      Otherwise it's possible to capture a function call using a temporary
      object, allowing privilege escalation in much the same ways that we
      blocked in CVE-2007-2138.

      Install dependencies to prevent dropping partition key columns
      (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      <command>ALTER TABLE ... DROP COLUMN</command> will refuse to drop
      a column that is a partition key column.  However, indirect drops
      (such as a cascade from dropping a key column's data type) had no
      such check, allowing the deletion of a key column.  This resulted in
      a badly broken partitioned table that could neither be accessed nor
      dropped.
     </para>

     <para>
      This fix adds <structname>pg_depend</structname> entries that
      enforce that the whole partitioned table, not just the key column,
      will be dropped if a cascaded drop forces removal of the key column.
      However, such entries will only be created when a partitioned table
      is created; so this fix does not remove the risk for pre-existing
      partitioned tables.  The issue can only arise for partition key
      columns of non-built-in data types, so it seems not to be a hazard
      for most users.

      Normally, if a table's primary key column(s) are included
      in <literal>GROUP BY</literal>, it's safe to drop any other grouping
      columns, since the primary key columns are enough to make the groups
      unique.  This rule does not work if the query is also reading
      inheritance child tables, though; the parent's uniqueness does not
      extend to the children.

      Fix mishandling of multi-column foreign keys when rebuilding a
      foreign key constraint (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      <command>ALTER TABLE</command> could make an incorrect decision about
      whether revalidation of a foreign key is necessary, if not all
      columns of the key are of the same type.  It seems likely that the
      error would always have been in the conservative direction, that is
      revalidating unnecessarily.

     <para>
      When two or more transactions are waiting for a transaction T1 to
      release a tuple-level lock, and T1 upgrades its lock to a higher
      level, a spurious deadlock among the waiting transactions could be
      reported when T1 finishes.

      Fix buffer-overflow hazards in SCRAM verifier parsing
      (Jonathan Katz, Heikki Linnakangas, Michael Paquier)
     </para>

     <para>
      Any authenticated user could cause a stack-based buffer overflow by
      changing their own password to a purpose-crafted value.  In addition
      to the ability to crash the <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>
      server, this could suffice for executing arbitrary code as
      the <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> operating system account.
     </para>

     <para>
      A similar overflow hazard existed
      in <application>libpq</application>, which could allow a rogue
      server to crash a client or perhaps execute arbitrary code as the
      client's operating system account.
     </para>

      Lakhin for reporting this problem.  (CVE-2019-10164)

      variant <literal>{1,1}?</literal>, on the subexpression they're

     <para>

      Prevent row-level security policies from being bypassed via
      selectivity estimators (Dean Rasheed)
     </para>

     <para>
      Some of the planner's selectivity estimators apply user-defined
      operators to values found in <structname>pg_statistic</structname>
      (e.g., most-common values).  A leaky operator therefore can disclose
      some of the entries in a data column, even if the calling user lacks
      permission to read that column.  In CVE-2017-7484 we added
      restrictions to forestall that, but we failed to consider the
      effects of row-level security.  A user who has SQL permission to
      read a column, but who is forbidden to see certain rows due to RLS
      policy, might still learn something about those rows' contents via a
      leaky operator.  This patch further tightens the rules, allowing
      leaky operators to be applied to statistics data only when there is
      no relevant RLS policy.  (CVE-2019-10130)

     </para>

     <para>
      When an underlying table is being accessed via a view, consider the
      privileges of the view owner while deciding whether leaky operators
      may be applied to the table's statistics data, rather than the
      privileges of the user making the query.  This makes the planner's
      rules about what data is visible match up with the executor's,
      avoiding unnecessarily-poor plans.

      By default, panic instead of retrying
      after <function>fsync()</function> failure, to avoid possible data
      corruption (Craig Ringer, Thomas Munro)
     </para>

     <para>
      Some popular operating systems discard kernel data buffers when
      unable to write them out, reporting this
      as <function>fsync()</function> failure.  If we reissue
      the <function>fsync()</function> request it will succeed, but in
      fact the data has been lost, so continuing risks database
      corruption.  By raising a panic condition instead, we can replay
      from WAL, which may contain the only remaining copy of the data in
      such a situation.  While this is surely ugly and inefficient, there
      are few alternatives, and fortunately the case happens very rarely.
     </para>

     <para>
      A new server parameter <xref linkend="guc-data-sync-retry">
      has been added to control this; if you are certain that your
      kernel does not discard dirty data buffers in such scenarios,
      you can set <varname>data_sync_retry</varname>
      to <literal>on</literal> to restore the old behavior.

      Disallow setting <varname>client_min_messages</varname> higher
      than <literal>ERROR</literal> (Jonah Harris, Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      Previously, it was possible to set this variable
      to <literal>FATAL</literal> or <literal>PANIC</literal>, which had
      the effect of suppressing transmission of ordinary error messages to
      the client.  However, that's contrary to guarantees that are given
      in the <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> wire protocol
      specification, and it caused some clients to become very confused.
      In released branches, fix this by silently treating such settings as
      meaning <literal>ERROR</literal> instead.  Version 12 and later will
      reject those alternatives altogether.

      Update the free space map during WAL replay of page all-visible/frozen
      flag changes (&Aacute;lvaro Herrera)
     </para>

     <para>
      Previously we were not careful about this, reasoning that the FSM is
      not critical data anyway.  However, if it's sufficiently out of date,
      that can result in significant performance degradation after a standby
      has been promoted to primary.  The FSM will eventually be healed by
      updates, but we'd like it to be good sooner, so work harder at
      maintaining it during WAL replay.

      Allow btree comparison functions to return <literal>INT_MIN</literal>
      (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      Up to now, we've forbidden datatype-specific comparison functions from
      returning <literal>INT_MIN</literal>, which allows callers to invert
      the sort order just by negating the comparison result.  However, this
      was never safe for comparison functions that directly return the
      result of <function>memcmp()</function>, <function>strcmp()</function>,
      etc, as POSIX doesn't place any such restriction on those functions.
      At least some recent versions of <function>memcmp()</function> can
      return <literal>INT_MIN</literal>, causing incorrect sort ordering.
      Hence, we've removed this restriction.  Callers must now use
      the <literal>INVERT_COMPARE_RESULT()</literal> macro if they wish to
      invert the sort order.

      Fix recursion hazard in shared-invalidation message processing

      This error could, for example, result in failure to access a system

     <para>
      This change adds a new result code

      Avoid using potentially-under-aligned page buffers (Tom Lane)

     <para>
      Invent new union types <type>PGAlignedBlock</type>
      and <type>PGAlignedXLogBlock</type>, and use these in place of plain
      char arrays, ensuring that the compiler can't place the buffer at a
      misaligned start address.  This fixes potential core dumps on
      alignment-picky platforms, and may improve performance even on
      platforms that allow misalignment.

      Fix failure to reset <application>libpq</application>'s state fully
      between connection attempts (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      An unprivileged user of <filename>dblink</filename>
      or <filename>postgres_fdw</filename> could bypass the checks intended
      to prevent use of server-side credentials, such as
      a <filename>~/.pgpass</filename> file owned by the operating-system
      user running the server.  Servers allowing peer authentication on
      local connections are particularly vulnerable.  Other attacks such
      as SQL injection into a <filename>postgres_fdw</filename> session
      are also possible.
      Attacking <filename>postgres_fdw</filename> in this way requires the
      ability to create a foreign server object with selected connection
      parameters, but any user with access to <filename>dblink</filename>
      could exploit the problem.
      In general, an attacker with the ability to select the connection
      parameters for a <application>libpq</application>-using application
      could cause mischief, though other plausible attack scenarios are
      harder to think of.
      Our thanks to Andrew Krasichkov for reporting this issue.

      Fix <application>libpq</application>'s handling of some cases
      where <literal>hostaddr</literal> is specified
      (Hari Babu, Tom Lane, Robert Haas)
     </para>

     <para>
      <function>PQhost()</function> gave misleading or incorrect results
      in some cases.  Now, it uniformly returns the host name if specified,
      or the host address if only that is specified, or the default host
      name (typically <literal>/tmp</literal>
      or <literal>localhost</literal>) if both parameters are omitted.
     </para>

     <para>
      Also, the wrong value might be compared to the server name when
      verifying an SSL certificate.
     </para>

     <para>
      Also, the wrong value might be compared to the host name field in
      <filename>~/.pgpass</filename>.  Now, that field is compared to the
      host name if specified, or the host address if only that is specified,
      or <literal>localhost</literal> if both parameters are omitted.
     </para>

     <para>
      Also, an incorrect error message was reported for an unparseable
      <literal>hostaddr</literal> value.
     </para>

     <para>
      Also, when the <literal>host</literal>, <literal>hostaddr</literal>,
      or <literal>port</literal> parameters contain comma-separated
      lists, <application>libpq</application> is now more careful to treat
      empty elements of a list as selecting the default behavior.

      Add a string freeing function

      library, so that cross-module memory management problems can be

     <para>
      On Windows, crashes can ensue if the <function>free</function> call
      for a given chunk of memory is not made from the same DLL
      that <function>malloc</function>'ed the memory.
      The <filename>pgtypes</filename> library sometimes returns strings
      that it expects the caller to free, making it impossible to follow
      this rule.  Add a <function>PGTYPESchar_free()</function> function
      that just wraps <function>free</function>, allowing applications
      to follow this rule.

      Remove public execute privilege

      <function>pg_logfile_rotate()</function> function (Stephen Frost)
     </para>

     <para>
      <function>pg_logfile_rotate()</function> is a deprecated wrapper
      for the core function <function>pg_rotate_logfile()</function>.
      When that function was changed to rely on SQL privileges for access
      control rather than a hard-coded superuser
      check, <function>pg_logfile_rotate()</function> should have been
      updated as well, but the need for this was missed.  Hence,
      if <filename>adminpack</filename> is installed, any user could
      request a logfile rotation, creating a minor security issue.

      Fix incorrect volatility markings on a few built-in functions
      (Thomas Munro, Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      The functions
      <function>query_to_xml</function>,
      <function>cursor_to_xml</function>,
      <function>cursor_to_xmlschema</function>,
      <function>query_to_xmlschema</function>, and
      <function>query_to_xml_and_xmlschema</function>
      should be marked volatile because they execute user-supplied queries
      that might contain volatile operations.  They were not, leading to a
      risk of incorrect query optimization.  This has been repaired for new
      installations by correcting the initial catalog data, but existing
      installations will continue to contain the incorrect markings.
      Practical use of these functions seems to pose little hazard, but in
      case of trouble, it can be fixed by manually updating these
      functions' <structname>pg_proc</structname> entries, for example
      <literal>ALTER FUNCTION pg_catalog.query_to_xml(text, boolean,
      boolean, text) VOLATILE</literal>.  (Note that that will need to be
      done in each database of the installation.)  Another option is
      to <application>pg_upgrade</application> the database to a version
      containing the corrected initial data.

      Fix incorrect parallel-safety markings on a few built-in functions
      (Thomas Munro, Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      The functions
      <function>brin_summarize_new_values</function>,
      <function>brin_summarize_range</function>,
      <function>brin_desummarize_range</function>,

      <function>binary_upgrade_create_empty_extension</function>, and
      <function>pg_import_system_collations</function>
      should be marked parallel-unsafe; some because they perform database
      modifications directly, and others because they execute user-supplied
      queries that might do so.  They were marked parallel-restricted
      instead, leading to a risk of unexpected query errors.  This has been
      repaired for new installations by correcting the initial catalog
      data, but existing installations will continue to contain the
      incorrect markings.  Practical use of these functions seems to pose
      little hazard unless <varname>force_parallel_mode</varname> is turned

      Avoid re-using TOAST value OIDs that match dead-but-not-yet-vacuumed
      TOAST entries (Pavan Deolasee)
     </para>

     <para>
      Once the OID counter has wrapped around, it's possible to assign a
      TOAST value whose OID matches a previously deleted entry in the same
      TOAST table.  If that entry were not yet vacuumed away, this resulted
      in <quote>unexpected chunk number 0 (expected 1) for toast
      value <replaceable>nnnnn</replaceable></quote> errors, which would
      persist until the dead entry was removed
      by <command>VACUUM</command>.  Fix by not selecting such OIDs when
      creating a new TOAST entry.

      Change <command>ANALYZE</command>'s algorithm for updating
      <structname>pg_class</structname>.<structfield>reltuples</structfield>
      (David Gould)
     </para>

     <para>
      Previously, pages not actually scanned by <command>ANALYZE</command>
      were assumed to retain their old tuple density.  In a large table
      where <command>ANALYZE</command> samples only a small fraction of the
      pages, this meant that the overall tuple density estimate could not
      change very much, so that <structfield>reltuples</structfield> would
      change nearly proportionally to changes in the table's physical size
      (<structfield>relpages</structfield>) regardless of what was actually
      happening in the table.  This has been observed to result
      in <structfield>reltuples</structfield> becoming so much larger than
      reality as to effectively shut off autovacuuming.  To fix, assume
      that <command>ANALYZE</command>'s sample is a statistically unbiased
      sample of the table (as it should be), and just extrapolate the
      density observed within those pages to the whole table.

      This could happen if some tuples were locked (but not deleted).  While

      Document how to configure installations and applications to guard
      against search-path-dependent trojan-horse attacks from other users
      (Noah Misch)
     </para>

     <para>
      Using a <varname>search_path</varname> setting that includes any
      schemas writable by a hostile user enables that user to capture
      control of queries and then run arbitrary SQL code with the
      permissions of the attacked user.  While it is possible to write
      queries that are proof against such hijacking, it is notationally
      tedious, and it's very easy to overlook holes.  Therefore, we now
      recommend configurations in which no untrusted schemas appear in
      one's search path.  Relevant documentation appears in
      <xref linkend="ddl-schemas-patterns"> (for database administrators and users),
      <xref linkend="libpq-connect"> (for application authors),
      <xref linkend="extend-extensions-security">  (for extension authors), and
      <xref linkend="sql-createfunction"> (for authors
      of <literal>SECURITY DEFINER</literal> functions).

      themselves vulnerable to the type of hijacking described in the previous
      changelog entry; since these applications are commonly run by
      superusers, they present particularly attractive targets.  To make them
      secure whether or not the installation as a whole has been secured,
      modify them to include only the <structname>pg_catalog</structname>
      schema in their <varname>search_path</varname> settings.
      Autovacuum worker processes now do the same, as well.
     </para>

     <para>
      In cases where user-provided functions are indirectly executed by
      these programs &mdash; for example, user-provided functions in index
      expressions &mdash; the tighter <varname>search_path</varname> may
      result in errors, which will need to be corrected by adjusting those
      user-provided functions to not assume anything about what search path
      they are invoked under.  That has always been good practice, but now
      it will be necessary for correct behavior.

     <para>
      An extended statistics object's schema was mislabeled in the dump's
      table of contents, possibly leading to the wrong results in a
      schema-selective restore.  Its ownership was not correctly restored,
      either.  Also, change the logic so that statistics objects are
      dumped/restored, or not, as independent objects rather than tying
      them to the dump/restore decision for the table they are on.  The
      original definition could not scale to the planned future extension to
      cross-table statistics.

      We always store XML strings in the database encoding, so allowing

      Avoid unsafe alignment assumptions when working
      with <type>__int128</type> (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      Typically, compilers assume that <type>__int128</type> variables are
      aligned on 16-byte boundaries, but our memory allocation
      infrastructure isn't prepared to guarantee that, and increasing the
      setting of MAXALIGN seems infeasible for multiple reasons.  Adjust the
      code to allow use of <type>__int128</type> only when we can tell the
      compiler to assume lesser alignment.  The only known symptom of this
      problem so far is crashes in some parallel aggregation queries.

      Fix sample <function>INSTR()</function> functions in the PL/pgSQL
      documentation (Yugo Nagata, Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      These functions are stated to
      be <trademark class="registered">Oracle</trademark> compatible, but
      they weren't exactly.  In particular, there was a discrepancy in the
      interpretation of a negative third parameter: Oracle thinks that a
      negative value indicates the last place where the target substring can
      begin, whereas our functions took it as the last place where the
      target can end.  Also, Oracle throws an error for a zero or negative
      fourth parameter, whereas our functions returned zero.
     </para>

     <para>
      The sample code has been adjusted to match Oracle's behavior more
      precisely.  Users who have copied this code into their applications
      may wish to update their copies.

      Fix <application>pg_dump</application> to make ACL (permissions),
      comment, and security label entries reliably identifiable in archive
      output formats (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      The <quote>tag</quote> portion of an ACL archive entry was usually
      just the name of the associated object.  Make it start with the object
      type instead, bringing ACLs into line with the convention already used
      for comment and security label archive entries.  Also, fix the
      comment and security label entries for the whole database, if present,
      to make their tags start with <literal>DATABASE</literal> so that they
      also follow this convention.  This prevents false matches in code that
      tries to identify large-object-related entries by seeing if the tag
      starts with <literal>LARGE OBJECT</literal>.  That could have resulted
      in misclassifying entries as data rather than schema, with undesirable
      results in a schema-only or data-only dump.

      operator to make it compatible with KNN search (Alexander Korotkov)

     <para>
      The meaning of the second argument (the dimension selector) has been
      changed to make it predictable which value is selected even when

     <para>
      This is an incompatible change, but since the point of the operator
      was to be used in KNN searches, it seems rather useless as-is.
      After installing this update, any expression indexes or materialized
      views using this operator will need to be reindexed/refreshed.

     <para>
      The update path of <literal>INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE</literal>
      requires <literal>SELECT</literal> permission on the columns of the
      arbiter index, but it failed to check for that in the case of an

      In addition, for a table with row level security enabled, it failed to
      check updated rows against the table's <literal>SELECT</literal>
      policies (regardless of how the arbiter index was specified).

      Fix sample server-start scripts to become <literal>$PGUSER</literal>
      before opening <literal>$PGLOG</literal> (Noah Misch)
     </para>

     <para>
      Previously, the postmaster log file was opened while still running as
      root.  The database owner could therefore mount an attack against
      another system user by making <literal>$PGLOG</literal> be a symbolic
      link to some other file, which would then become corrupted by appending
      log messages.
     </para>

     <para>
      By default, these scripts are not installed anywhere.  Users who have
      made use of them will need to manually recopy them, or apply the same
      changes to their modified versions.  If the
      existing <literal>$PGLOG</literal> file is root-owned, it will need to
      be removed or renamed out of the way before restarting the server with
      the corrected script.

      Correctly detect hashability of range data types (Tom Lane)
     </para>

     <para>
      The planner mistakenly assumed that any range type could be hashed
      for use in hash joins or hash aggregation, but actually it must check
      whether the range's subtype has hash support.  This does not affect any
      of the built-in range types, since they're all hashable anyway.

      Prevent sharing transition states between ordered-set aggregates

      This causes a crash with the built-in ordered-set aggregates, and
      probably with user-written ones as well.  v11 and later will include
      provisions for dealing with such cases safely, but in released

      Due to a toolchain change, the 10.0 user manual had lower-case strings
      for intrapage anchors, thus breaking some external links into our

      Change the implementation of set-returning functions appearing in
      a query's <literal>SELECT</literal> list (Andres Freund)
     </para>

     <para>
      Set-returning functions are now evaluated before evaluation of scalar
      expressions in the <literal>SELECT</literal> list, much as though they had
      been placed in a <literal>LATERAL FROM</literal>-clause item.  This allows
      saner semantics for cases where multiple set-returning functions are
      present.  If they return different numbers of rows, the shorter results
      are extended to match the longest result by adding nulls.  Previously
      the results were cycled until they all terminated at the same time,
      producing a number of rows equal to the least common multiple of the
      functions' periods.  In addition, set-returning functions are now
      disallowed within <literal>CASE</literal> and <literal>COALESCE</literal> constructs.

     <para>

      system catalog (Peter Eisentraut)
     </para>

     <para>
      A sequence relation now stores only the fields that can be modified
      by <function>nextval()</function>, that
      is <structfield>last_value</structfield>, <structfield>log_cnt</structfield>,
      and <structfield>is_called</structfield>.  Other sequence properties, such as
      the starting value and increment, are kept in a corresponding row of
      the <structname>pg_sequence</structname> catalog.
      <command>ALTER SEQUENCE</command> updates are now fully transactional,
      implying that the sequence is locked until commit.
      The <function>nextval()</function> and <function>setval()</function> functions
      remain nontransactional.
     </para>

     <para>
      The main incompatibility introduced by this change is that selecting
      from a sequence relation now returns only the three fields named
      above.  To obtain the sequence's other properties, applications must
      look into <structname>pg_sequence</structname>.  The new system
      view <link linkend="view-pg-sequences"><structname>pg_sequences</structname></link>
      can also be used for this purpose; it provides column names that are
      more compatible with existing code.
     </para>

     <para>
      Also, sequences created for <literal>SERIAL</literal> columns now generate
      positive 32-bit wide values, whereas previous versions generated 64-bit
      wide values.  This has no visible effect if the values are only stored in
      a column.

      In previous releases, a logical replication connection required

     <para>
      The size of the compiled-in DH parameters has been increased from
      1024 to 2048 bits, making DH key exchange more resistant to
      brute-force attacks.  However, some old SSL implementations, notably
      some revisions of Java Runtime Environment version 6, will not accept
      DH parameters longer than 1024 bits, and hence will not be able to
      connect over SSL.  If it's necessary to support such old clients, you
      can use custom 1024-bit DH parameters instead of the compiled-in
      defaults.  See <xref linkend="guc-ssl-dh-params-file">.

        variable, still has the effect of setting the variable

        than an empty string.  <command>\unset</command> on a special variable now
        explicitly sets the variable to its default value, which is also
        the value it acquires at startup.  In sum, a control variable now
