2021-10-04Fix check for trapping exit() calls in libpqDaniel Gustafsson
Commit e9bc0441f added an errorhint on the exit() check for libpq, but accidentally changed the nm commandline to use -a instead of -A. These options are similar enough to hide it in testing, but -a can also show debugger symbols which isn't what we want. Fix by reverting the check back to using -A again.

2021-10-04Provide error hint on exit() check when building libpqDaniel Gustafsson
Commit dc227eb82 introduced a restriction on libpq that no functions which invoke exit() are allowed to be called. This was further refined and fixed in e45b0dfa1f and 2f7bae2f92 and 792259591. While this is well documented in the Makefile, the error message emitted when the check failed was terse, without hints for new developers without prior context. This adds an error hint to assist new developers onboarding to postgres.

2021-09-13Clear conn->errorMessage at successful completion of PQconnectdb().Tom Lane
Commits ffa2e4670 and 52a10224e caused libpq's connection-establishment functions to usually leave a nonempty string in the connection's errorMessage buffer, even after a successful connection. While that was intentional on my part, more sober reflection says that it wasn't a great idea: the string would be a bit confusing. Also this broke at least one application that checked for connection success by examining the errorMessage, instead of using PQstatus() as documented. Let's clear the buffer at success exit, restoring the pre-v14 behavior. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/4170264.1620321747@sss.pgh.pa.us
2021-09-13Fix error handling with threads on OOM in ECPG connection logicMichael Paquier
An out-of-memory failure happening when allocating the structures to store the connection parameter keywords and values would mess up with the set of connections saved, as on failure the pthread mutex would still be hold with the new connection object listed but free()'d. Rather than just unlocking the mutex, which would leave the static list of connections into an inconsistent state, move the allocation for the structures of the connection parameters before beginning the test manipulation. This ensures that the list of connections and the connection mutex remain consistent all the time in this code path. This error is unlikely going to happen, but this could mess up badly with ECPG clients in surprising ways, so backpatch all the way down.

2021-08-17Set type identifier on BIODaniel Gustafsson
In OpenSSL there are two types of BIO's (I/O abstractions): source/sink and filters. A source/sink BIO is a source and/or sink of data, ie one acting on a socket or a file. A filter BIO takes a stream of input from another BIO and transforms it. In order for BIO_find_type() to be able to traverse the chain of BIO's and correctly find all BIO's of a certain type they shall have the type bit set accordingly, source/sink BIO's (what PostgreSQL implements) use BIO_TYPE_SOURCE_SINK and filter BIO's use BIO_TYPE_FILTER. In addition to these, file descriptor based BIO's should have the descriptor bit set, BIO_TYPE_DESCRIPTOR. The PostgreSQL implementation didn't set the type bits, which went unnoticed for a long time as it's only really relevant for code auditing the OpenSSL installation, or doing similar tasks. It is required by the API though, so this fixes it. Backpatch through 9.6 as this has been wrong for a long time.

2021-07-29Improve libpq's handling of OOM during error message construction.Tom Lane
Commit ffa2e4670 changed libpq so that multiple error reports occurring during one operation (a connection attempt or query) are accumulated in conn->errorMessage, where before new ones usually replaced any prior error. At least in theory, that makes us more vulnerable to running out of memory for the errorMessage buffer. If it did happen, the user would be left with just an empty-string error report, which is pretty unhelpful. We can improve this by relying on pqexpbuffer.c's existing "broken buffer" convention to track whether we've hit OOM for the current operation's error string, and then substituting a constant "out of memory" string in the small number of places where the errorMessage is read out. While at it, apply the same method to similar OOM cases in pqInternalNotice and pqGetErrorNotice3. Back-patch to v14 where ffa2e4670 came in. In principle this could go back further; but in view of the lack of field reports, the hazard seems negligible in older branches. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/530153.1627425648@sss.pgh.pa.us

2021-07-10Add more sanity checks in SASL exchangesMichael Paquier
The following checks are added, to make the SASL infrastructure more aware of defects when implementing new mechanisms: - Detect that no output is generated by a mechanism if an exchange fails in the backend, failing if there is a message waiting to be sent. - Handle zero-length messages in the frontend. The backend handles that already, and SCRAM would complain if sending empty messages as this is not authorized for this mechanism, but other mechanisms may want this capability (the SASL specification allows that). - Make sure that a mechanism generates a message in the middle of the exchange in the frontend. SCRAM, as implemented, respects all these requirements already, and the recent refactoring of SASL done in 9fd8557 helps in documenting that in a cleaner way.

2021-07-09libpq: Fix sending queries in pipeline aborted stateAlvaro Herrera
When sending queries in pipeline mode, we were careless about leaving the connection in the right state so that PQgetResult would behave correctly; trying to read further results after sending a query after having read a result with an error would sometimes hang. Fix by ensuring internal libpq state is changed properly. All the state changes were being done by the callers of pqAppendCmdQueueEntry(); it would have become too repetitious to have this logic in each of them, so instead put it all in that function and relieve callers of the responsibility. Add a test to verify this case. Without the code fix, this new test hangs sometimes. Also, document that PQisBusy() would return false when no queries are pending result. This is not intuitively obvious, and NULL would be obtained by calling PQgetResult() at that point, which is confusing. Wording by Boris Kolpackov. In passing, fix bogus use of "false" to mean "0", per Ranier Vilela. Backpatch to 14.

2021-07-07Refactor SASL code with a generic interface for its mechanismsMichael Paquier
The code of SCRAM and SASL have been tightly linked together since SCRAM exists in the core code, making hard to apprehend the addition of new SASL mechanisms, but these are by design different facilities, with SCRAM being an option for SASL. This refactors the code related to both so as the backend and the frontend use a set of callbacks for SASL mechanisms, documenting while on it what is expected by anybody adding a new SASL mechanism. The separation between both layers is neat, using two sets of callbacks for the frontend and the backend to mark the frontier between both facilities. The shape of the callbacks is now directly inspired from the routines used by SCRAM, so the code change is straight-forward, and the SASL code is moved into its own set of files. These will likely change depending on how and if new SASL mechanisms get added in the future.

2021-07-03Further restrict the scope of no-exit()-in-libpq test.Tom Lane
Disable this check altogether in --enable-coverage builds, because newer versions of gcc insert exit() as well as abort() calls for that. Also disable it on AIX and Solaris, because those platforms tend to provide facilities such as libldap as static libraries, which then get included in libpq's shlib. We can't expect such libraries to honor our coding rules. (That platform list might need additional tweaking, but I think this is enough to keep the buildfarm happy.)

2021-06-30Fix portability fallout from commit dc227eb82.Tom Lane
Give up on trying to mechanically forbid abort() within libpq. Even though there are no such calls in the source code, we've now seen three different scenarios where build toolchains silently insert such calls: gcc does it for profiling, some platforms implement assert() using it, and icc does so for no visible reason. Checking for accidental use of exit() seems considerably more important than checking for abort(), so we'll settle for doing that for now. Also, filter out __cxa_atexit() to avoid a false match. It seems that OpenBSD inserts a call to that despite the fact that libpq contains no C++ code. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/3128896.1624742969@sss.pgh.pa.us
2021-06-29Fix libpq state machine in pipeline modeAlvaro Herrera
The original coding required that PQpipelineSync had been called before the first call to PQgetResult, and failure to do that would result in an unexpected NULL result being returned. Fix by setting the right state when a query is sent, rather than leaving it unchanged and having PQpipelineSync apply the necessary state change. A new test case to verify the behavior is added, which relies on the new PQsendFlushRequest() function added by commit a7192326c74d. Backpatch to 14, where pipeline mode was added.

2021-06-29Add PQsendFlushRequest to libpqAlvaro Herrera
This new libpq function allows the application to send an 'H' message, which instructs the server to flush its outgoing buffer. This hasn't been needed so far because the Sync message already requests a buffer; and I failed to realize that this was needed in pipeline mode because PQpipelineSync also causes the buffer to be flushed. However, sometimes it is useful to request a flush without establishing a synchronization point. Backpatch to 14, where pipeline mode was introduced in libpq.

2021-06-29Add a build-time check that libpq doesn't call exit() or abort().Tom Lane
Directly exiting or aborting seems like poor form for a general-purpose library. Now that libpq liberally uses bits out of src/common/, it's very easy to accidentally include code that would do something unwanted like calling exit(1) after OOM --- see for example 8ec00dc5c. Hence, add a simple cross-check that no such calls have made it into libpq.so. The cross-check depends on nm(1) being available and being able to work on a shared library, which probably isn't true everywhere. But we can just make the test silently do nothing if nm fails. As long as the check is effective on common platforms, that should be good enough. (By the same logic, I've not worried about providing an equivalent test in MSVC builds.)

2021-06-29Remove libpq's use of abort(3) to handle mutex failure cases.Tom Lane
Doing an abort() seems all right in development builds, but not in production builds of general-purpose libraries. However, the functions that were doing this lack any way to report a failure back up to their callers. It seems like we can just get away with ignoring failures in production builds, since (a) no such failures have been reported in the dozen years that the code's been like this, and (b) failure to enforce mutual exclusion during fe-auth.c operations would likely not cause any problems anyway in most cases. (The OpenSSL callbacks that use this macro are obsolete, so even less likely to cause interesting problems.) Possibly a better answer would be to break compatibility of the pgthreadlock_t callback API, but in the absence of field problem reports, it doesn't really seem worth the trouble.

2021-06-28Don't use abort(3) in libpq's fe-print.c.Tom Lane
Causing a core dump on out-of-memory seems pretty unfriendly, and surely is far outside the expected behavior of a general-purpose library. Just print an error message (as we did already) and return. These functions unfortunately don't have an error return convention, but code using them is probably just looking for a quick-n-dirty print method and wouldn't bother to check anyway. Although these functions are semi-deprecated, it still seems appropriate to back-patch this. In passing, also back-patch b90e6cef1, just to reduce cosmetic differences between the branches.

2021-06-26Remove undesirable libpq dependency on stringinfo.c.Tom Lane
Commit c0cb87fbb unwisely introduced a dependency on the StringInfo machinery in fe-connect.c. We must not use that in libpq, because it will do a summary exit(1) if it hits OOM, and that is not appropriate behavior for a general-purpose library. The goal of allowing arbitrary line lengths in service files doesn't seem like it's worth a lot of effort, so revert back to the previous method of using a stack-allocated buffer and failing on buffer overflow. This isn't an exact revert though. I kept that patch's refactoring to have a single exit path, as that seems cleaner than having each error path know what to do to clean up. Also, I made the fixed-size buffer 1024 bytes not 256, just to push off the need for an expandable buffer some more. There is more to do here; in particular the lack of any mechanical check for this type of mistake now seems pretty hazardous. But this fix gets us back to the level of robustness we had in v13, anyway. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/daeb22ec6ca8ef61e94d766a9b35fb03cabed38e.camel@vmware.com
2021-06-23Don't assume GSSAPI result strings are null-terminated.Tom Lane
Our uses of gss_display_status() and gss_display_name() assumed that the gss_buffer_desc strings returned by those functions are null-terminated. It appears that they generally are, given the lack of field complaints up to now. However, the available documentation does not promise this, and some man pages for gss_display_status() show examples that rely on the gss_buffer_desc.length field instead of expecting null termination. Also, we now have a report that on some implementations, clang's address sanitizer is of the opinion that the byte after the specified length is undefined. Hence, change the code to rely on the length field instead. This might well be cosmetic rather than fixing any real bug, but it's hard to be sure, so back-patch to all supported branches. While here, also back-patch the v12 changes that made pg_GSS_error deal honestly with multiple messages available from gss_display_status. Per report from Sudheer H R.

2021-06-19Provide feature-test macros for libpq features added in v14.Tom Lane
We had a request to provide a way to test at compile time for the availability of the new pipeline features. More generally, it seems like a good idea to provide a way to test via #ifdef for all new libpq API features. People have been using the version from pg_config.h for that; but that's more likely to represent the server version than the libpq version, in the increasingly-common scenario where they're different. It's safer if libpq-fe.h itself is the source of truth about what features it offers. Hence, establish a policy that starting in v14 we'll add a suitable feature-is-present macro to libpq-fe.h when we add new API there.

2021-06-10Avoid ECPG test failures in some GSS-capable environments.Tom Lane
Buildfarm member hamerkop has been reporting that two cases in connect/test5.pgc show different error messages than the test expects, because since commit ffa2e4670 libpq's connection failure messages are exposing the fact that a GSS-encrypted connection was attempted and failed. That's pretty interesting information in itself, and I certainly don't wish to shoot the messenger, but we need to do something to stabilize the ECPG results. For the second of these two failure cases, we can add the gssencmode=disable option to prevent the discrepancy. However, that solution is problematic for the first failure, because the only unique thing about that case is that it's testing a completely-omitted connection target; there's noplace to add the option without defeating the point of the test case. After some thrashing around with alternative fixes that turned out to have undesirable side-effects, the most workable answer is just to give up and remove that test case. Perhaps we can revert this later, if we figure out why the GSS code is misbehaving in hamerkop's environment. Thanks to Michael Paquier for exploration of alternatives.

2021-06-08Adjust batch size in postgres_fdw to not use too many parametersTomas Vondra
The FE/BE protocol identifies parameters with an Int16 index, which limits the maximum number of parameters per query to 65535.

2021-06-07Fix incautious handling of possibly-miscoded strings in client code.Tom Lane
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 isn't an issue in the server, because we take care to verify the encoding of strings before doing any interesting processing on them. However, that lack of care leaked into client-side code which shouldn't assume that anyone has validated the encoding of its input. Although this is certainly a bug worth fixing, the PG security team elected not to regard it as a security issue, primarily because any untrusted text should be sanitized by PQescapeLiteral or the like before being incorporated into a SQL or psql command. (If an app fails to do so, the same technique can be used to cause SQL injection, with probably much more dire consequences than a mere client-program crash.) Those functions were already made proof against this class of problem, cf CVE-2006-2313. To fix, invent PQmblenBounded() which is like PQmblen() except it won't return more than the number of bytes remaining in the string. In HEAD we can make this a new libpq function, as PQmblen() is. It seems imprudent to change libpq's API in stable branches though, so in the back branches define PQmblenBounded as a macro in the files that need it. (Note that just changing PQmblen's behavior would not be a good idea; notably, it would completely break the escaping functions' defense against this exact problem. So we just want a version for those callers that don't have any better way of handling this issue.) Per private report from houjingyi. Back-patch to all supported branches.

Also add comment in the two places where this could be confused. Reported-by: Noah Misch Diagnosed-by: 20210425115726.GA2353095@rfd.leadboat.com
2021-04-23Factor out system call names from error messagesPeter Eisentraut
Instead, put them in via a format placeholder. This reduces the number of distinct translatable messages and also reduces the chances of typos during translation. We already did this for the system call arguments in a number of cases, so this is just the same thing taken a bit further.

Some code thought this was unsigned, but it's signed int.

2021-04-09Suppress length of Notice/Error msgs in PQtrace regress modeAlvaro Herrera
A (relatively minor) annoyance of ErrorResponse/NoticeResponse messages as printed by PQtrace() is that their length might vary when we move error messages from one source file to another, one function to another, or even when their location line numbers change number of digits. To avoid having to adjust expected files for some tests, make the regress mode of PQtrace() suppress the length word of NoticeResponse and ErrorResponse messages.
