Release Notes
+ Release 7.3.10
+
+ Release date: 2005-05-05
+
+ This release contains a variety of fixes from 7.3.9, including several
+ security-related issues.
+ _________________________________________________________________
+
+ Migration to version 7.3.10
+
+ A dump/restore is not required for those running 7.3.X. However, it is
+ one possible way of handling a significant security problem that has
+ been found in the initial contents of 7.3.X system catalogs. A
+ dump/initdb/reload sequence using 7.3.10's initdb will automatically
+ correct this problem.
+
+ The security problem is that the built-in character set encoding
+ conversion functions can be invoked from SQL commands by unprivileged
+ users, but the functions were not designed for such use and are not
+ secure against malicious choices of arguments. The fix involves
+ changing the declared parameter list of these functions so that they
+ can no longer be invoked from SQL commands. (This does not affect
+ their normal use by the encoding conversion machinery.) It is strongly
+ recommended that all installations repair this error, either by initdb
+ or by following the manual repair procedure given below. The error at
+ least allows unprivileged database users to crash their server
+ process, and may allow unprivileged users to gain the privileges of a
+ database superuser.
+
+ If you wish not to do an initdb, perform the following procedure
+ instead. As the database superuser, do:
+BEGIN;
+UPDATE pg_proc SET proargtypes[3] = 'internal'::regtype
+WHERE pronamespace = 11 AND pronargs = 5
+ AND proargtypes[2] = 'cstring'::regtype;
+-- The command should report having updated 90 rows;
+-- if not, rollback and investigate instead of committing!
+COMMIT;
+
+ The above procedure must be carried out in *each* database of an
+ installation, including template1, and ideally including template0 as
+ well. If you do not fix the template databases then any subsequently
+ created databases will contain the same error. template1 can be fixed
+ in the same way as any other database, but fixing template0 requires
+ additional steps. First, from any database issue
+UPDATE pg_database SET datallowconn = true WHERE datname = 'template0';
+
+ Next connect to template0 and perform the above repair procedure.
+ Finally, do
+-- re-freeze template0:
+VACUUM FREEZE;
+-- and protect it against future alterations:
+UPDATE pg_database SET datallowconn = false WHERE datname = 'template0';
+ _________________________________________________________________
+
+ Changes
+
+ * Change encoding function signature to prevent misuse
+ * Fix comparisons of TIME WITH TIME ZONE values
+ The comparison code was wrong in the case where the
+ --enable-integer-datetimes configuration switch had been used.
+ NOTE: if you have an index on a TIME WITH TIME ZONE column, it
+ will need to be "REINDEX"ed after installing this update, because
+ the fix corrects the sort order of column values.
+ * Fix EXTRACT(EPOCH) for TIME WITH TIME ZONE values
+ * Fix mis-display of negative fractional seconds in INTERVAL values
+ This error only occurred when the --enable-integer-datetimes
+ configuration switch had been used.
+ * Additional buffer overrun checks in plpgsql (Neil)
+ * Fix pg_dump to dump trigger names containing % correctly (Neil)
+ * Prevent to_char(interval) from dumping core for month-related
+ formats
+ * Fix "contrib/pgcrypto" for newer OpenSSL builds (Marko Kreen)
+ * Still more 64-bit fixes for "contrib/intagg"
+ * Prevent incorrect optimization of functions returning RECORD
