Noah Misch 39d792040c Empty search_path in amcheck.
A grantee of amcheck function EXECUTE privilege could execute arbitrary
functions as the owners of expression indexes that depend on the search
path.  An expression like (lower(col)) was not vulnerable, because
lower() is resolved at CREATE INDEX time.  However, an expression
calling an sql-language or plpgsql-language function often was
vulnerable, even if it used search_path only to find objects in
pg_catalog.  The amcheck documentation has been warning about data
disclosure after such a GRANT, not about function execution.

This might cause new amcheck errors when index expressions rely on a
broader search_path.  Such indexes have seen errors during auto-analyze
since CVE-2018-1058 commit 582edc369c, and
v17 amcheck always worked this way.  Hence, the risk is low.

Leave a comment on the one other sandbox entrance that doesn't empty
search_path.  In its case, the choice was valid.

Back-patch to v14 (all supported versions), but v17 was safe already.
Commit 2af07e2f74 (v17) unintentionally
blocked the attack, and commit d70b17636d
(v18) unintentionally removed that protection.  Hence, this adds to v17
just a test and a comment.  While emptying search_path became more
widespread in commit 2af07e2f74 (v17),
none of its other changes blocked an attack available in v16, even when
considering GRANT.  For example, brin_summarize_range() has had an owner
check that GRANT does not override.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
