+ 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.
