- Update to 12.17:
|
||||
* bsc#1216962, CVE-2023-5868: Fix handling of unknown-type
|
||||
arguments in DISTINCT "any" aggregate functions. This error led
|
||||
to a text-type value being interpreted as an unknown-type value
|
||||
(that is, a zero-terminated string) at runtime. This could
|
||||
result in disclosure of server memory following the text value.
|
||||
* bsc#1216961, CVE-2023-5869: Detect integer overflow while
|
||||
computing new array dimensions. When assigning new elements to
|
||||
array subscripts that are outside the current array bounds, an
|
||||
undetected integer overflow could occur in edge cases. Memory
|
||||
stomps that are potentially exploitable for arbitrary code
|
||||
execution are possible, and so is disclosure of server memory.
|
||||
* bsc#1216960, CVE-2023-5870: Prevent the pg_signal_backend role
|
||||
from signalling background workers and autovacuum processes.
|
||||
The documentation says that pg_signal_backend cannot issue
|
||||
signals to superuser-owned processes. It was able to signal
|
||||
these background processes, though, because they advertise a
|
||||
role OID of zero. Treat that as indicating superuser ownership.
|
||||
The security implications of cancelling one of these process
|
||||
types are fairly small so far as the core code goes (we'll just
|
||||
start another one), but extensions might add background workers
|
||||
that are more vulnerable.
|
||||
Also ensure that the is_superuser parameter is set correctly in
|
||||
such processes. No specific security consequences are known for
|
||||
that oversight, but it might be significant for some extensions.
|
||||
* Add support for LLVM 16 and 17
