+ Release 8.3.20
+
+
+ Release Date
+ 2012-08-17
+
+
+
+ This release contains a variety of fixes from 8.3.19.
+ For information about new features in the 8.3 major release, see
+ .
+
+
+
+ The PostgreSQL community will stop releasing updates
+ for the 8.3.X release series in February 2013.
+ Users are encouraged to update to a newer release branch soon.
+
+
+
+ Migration to Version 8.3.20
+
+
+ A dump/restore is not required for those running 8.3.X.
+
+
+
+ However, if you are upgrading from a version earlier than 8.3.17,
+ see the release notes for 8.3.17.

+
+
+ Changes
+
+
+
+
+
+ Prevent access to external files/URLs via XML entity references
+ (Noah Misch, Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+ xml_parse() would attempt to fetch external files or
+ URLs as needed to resolve DTD and entity references in an XML value,
+ thus allowing unprivileged database users to attempt to fetch data
+ with the privileges of the database server. While the external data
+ wouldn't get returned directly to the user, portions of it could be
+ exposed in error messages if the data didn't parse as valid XML; and
+ in any case the mere ability to check existence of a file might be
+ useful to an attacker. (CVE-2012-3489)
+
+
+
+
+
+ Prevent access to external files/URLs via contrib/xml2's
+ xslt_process() (Peter Eisentraut)
+
+
+
+ libxslt offers the ability to read and write both
+ files and URLs through stylesheet commands, thus allowing
+ unprivileged database users to both read and write data with the
+ privileges of the database server. Disable that through proper use
+ of libxslt's security options. (CVE-2012-3488)
+
+
+
+ Also, remove xslt_process()'s ability to fetch documents
+ and stylesheets from external files/URLs. While this was a
+ documented feature, it was long regarded as a bad idea.
+ The fix for CVE-2012-3489 broke that capability, and rather than
+ expend effort on trying to fix it, we're just going to summarily
+ remove it.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Prevent too-early recycling of btree index pages (Noah Misch)
+
+
+
+ When we allowed read-only transactions to skip assigning XIDs, we
+ introduced the possibility that a deleted btree page could be
+ recycled while a read-only transaction was still in flight to it.
+ This would result in incorrect index search results. The probability
+ of such an error occurring in the field seems very low because of the
+ timing requirements, but nonetheless it should be fixed.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Fix crash-safety bug with newly-created-or-reset sequences (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+ If ALTER SEQUENCE was executed on a freshly created or
+ reset sequence, and then precisely one nextval() call
+ was made on it, and then the server crashed, WAL replay would restore
+ the sequence to a state in which it appeared that no
+ nextval() had been done, thus allowing the first
+ sequence value to be returned again by the next
+ nextval() call. In particular this could manifest for
+ serial columns, since creation of a serial column's sequence
+ includes an ALTER SEQUENCE OWNED BY step.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Ensure the backup_label file is fsync'd after
+ pg_start_backup() (Dave Kerr)
+
+
+
+
+
+ Back-patch 9.1 improvement to compress the fsync request queue
+ (Robert Haas)
+
+
+
+ This improves performance during checkpoints. The 9.1 change
+ has now seen enough field testing to seem safe to back-patch.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Only allow autovacuum to be auto-canceled by a directly blocked
+ process (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+ The original coding could allow inconsistent behavior in some cases;
+ in particular, an autovacuum could get canceled after less than
+ deadlock_timeout grace period.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Improve logging of autovacuum cancels (Robert Haas)
+
+
+
+
+
+ Fix log collector so that log_truncate_on_rotation works
+ during the very first log rotation after server start (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+
+
+ Ensure that a whole-row reference to a subquery doesn't include any
+ extra GROUP BY or ORDER BY columns (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+
+
+ Disallow copying whole-row references in CHECK
+ constraints and index definitions during CREATE TABLE
+ (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+ This situation can arise in CREATE TABLE with
+ LIKE or INHERITS. The copied whole-row
+ variable was incorrectly labeled with the row type of the original
+ table not the new one. Rejecting the case seems reasonable for
+ LIKE, since the row types might well diverge later. For
+ INHERITS we should ideally allow it, with an implicit
+ coercion to the parent table's row type; but that will require more
+ work than seems safe to back-patch.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Fix memory leak in ARRAY(SELECT ...) subqueries (Heikki
+ Linnakangas, Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+
+
+ Fix extraction of common prefixes from regular expressions (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+ The code could get confused by quantified parenthesized
+ subexpressions, such as ^(foo)?bar. This would lead to
+ incorrect index optimization of searches for such patterns.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Report errors properly in contrib/xml2's
+ xslt_process() (Tom Lane)
+

+ libxslt offers the ability to read and write both

+
+
+
+ Fix race condition in enum-type value comparisons (Robert

+
+
+
+ Comparisons could fail when encountering an enum value added since
+ the current query started.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Fix txid_current() to report the correct epoch when not

+
+
+
+ This fixes a regression introduced in the previous minor release.
+
+
+
+
+
+ Prevent selection of unsuitable replication connections as
+ the synchronous standby (Fujii Masao)
+
+
+
+ The master might improperly choose pseudo-servers such as
+ pg_receivexlog or pg_basebackup
+ as the synchronous standby, and then wait indefinitely for them.

+
+
+
+
+
+ Wake walsenders after each background flush by walwriter (Andres

+ Disallow copying whole-row references in CHECK
+ constraints and index definitions during CREATE TABLE
+ (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+ This situation can arise in CREATE TABLE with
+ LIKE or INHERITS. The copied whole-row
+ variable was incorrectly labeled with the row type of the original
+ table not the new one. Rejecting the case seems reasonable for
+ LIKE, since the row types might well diverge later. For
+ INHERITS we should ideally allow it, with an implicit
+ coercion to the parent table's row type; but that will require more
+ work than seems safe to back-patch.

+
+
+
+ This was not previously required by any core selectivity estimation

+
+ Fix extraction of common prefixes from regular expressions (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+ The code could get confused by quantified parenthesized
+ subexpressions, such as ^(foo)?bar. This would lead to
+ incorrect index optimization of searches for such patterns.

+ Fix pg_dump to better handle views containing partial
+ GROUP BY lists (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+ A view that lists only a primary key column in GROUP BY,
+ but uses other table columns as if they were grouped, gets marked as
+ depending on the primary key. Improper handling of such primary key
+ dependencies in pg_dump resulted in poorly-ordered
+ dumps, which at best would be inefficient to restore and at worst
+ could result in outright failure of a parallel
+ pg_restore run.

+
+ Use Postgres' encoding conversion functions, not Python's, when
+ converting a Python Unicode string to the server encoding in
+ PL/Python (Jan Urbanski)
+
+
+
+ This avoids some corner-case problems, notably that Python doesn't
+ support all the encodings Postgres does. A notable functional change
+ is that if the server encoding is SQL_ASCII, you will get the UTF-8
+ representation of the string; formerly, any non-ASCII characters in
+ the string would result in an error.
