The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all
supported versions of PostgreSQL, including 17.4, 16.8, 15.12, 14.17,
and 13.20.
The issues listed below affect PostgreSQL 17. Some of these issues may
also affect other supported versions of PostgreSQL.
Improve behavior of quoting functions in libpq. The fix for
CVE-2025-1094 caused the quoting functions to not honor their string
length parameters and, in some cases, cause crashes. This problem could
be noticeable from a PostgreSQL client library, based on how it is
integrated with libpq.
Fix small memory leak in pg_createsubscriber.
Also fix a problem in the FreeBSD port, where the rc script wouldn't
return properly, messing up orchestration tools like ansible. [1]

The issues listed below affect PostgreSQL 17. Some of these issues may
also affect other supported versions of PostgreSQL.
- Restore functionality of ALTER ROLE .. SET ROLE and ALTER DATABASE ..
SET ROLE. The fix for CVE-2024-10978 accidentally caused settings for
role to not be applied if they came from non-interactive sources,
including previous ALTER {ROLE|DATABASE} commands and the PGOPTIONS
environment variable.
- Restore compatibility for the timescaledb and other PostgreSQL
extensions built using PostgreSQL prior to the 2024-11-14 release
(17.0, 16.4, 15.8, 14.13, 13.16, 12.20, and earlier). This fix restores
struct ResultRelInfo to its previous size, so that affected extensions
don't need to be rebuilt.
- Fix cases where a logical replication slot's restart_lsn could go backwards.
- Avoid deleting still-needed WAL files during pg_rewind.
- Fix race conditions associated with dropping shared statistics
entries, which could lead to loss of statistics data.
- Fix crash with ALTER TABLE when checking to see if an index's opclass
options have changed if the table has an index with a non-default
operator class.

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all
supported versions of PostgreSQL, including 15.3, 14.8, 13.11, 12.15,
and 11.20. This release fixes two security vulnerabilities over 80 bugs
reported over the last several months.
CVE-2023-2454: CREATE SCHEMA ... schema_element defeats protective search_path changes.
This enabled an attacker having database-level CREATE privilege to
execute arbitrary code as the bootstrap superuser. Database owners have
that right by default, and explicit grants may extend it to other users.
CVE-2023-2455: Row security policies disregard user ID changes after inlining.
While CVE-2016-2193 fixed most interaction between row security and user
ID changes, it missed a scenario involving function inlining. This leads
to potentially incorrect policies being applied in cases where
role-specific policies are used and a given query is planned under one
role and then executed under other roles. This scenario can happen under
security definer functions or when a common user and query is planned
initially and then re-used across multiple SET ROLEs. Applying an
incorrect policy may permit a user to complete otherwise-forbidden reads
and modifications. This affects only databases that have used CREATE
POLICY to define a row security policy.

PostgreSQL server may use late-mounted filesystems, so require these

atop of ZFS, and if posgresql-server starts before mountlate, its
socket which resides on /tmp is hidden under tmpfs which is mounted
afterwards.

Many of the WWW are overwritten later which means the wrong value
is used. This did not happen before where the children were either
a) just using the pkg-descr from the parents
b) or had their own separate pkg-descr with custom WWW
Use WWW?= in parents when the child's WWW is different.
Children that use the same WWW as the parent can just inherit it,
i.e., the child WWW can be removed.
Approved by: portmgr (implicit)
Commit b7f05445c0 has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
This commit implements such a proposal and moves one of the WWW: entries
of each pkg-descr file into the respective port's Makefile. A heuristic
attempts to identify the most relevant URL in case there is more than
one WWW: entry in some pkg-descr file. URLs that are not moved into the
Makefile are prefixed with "See also:" instead of "WWW:" in the pkg-descr
files in order to preserve them.
There are 1256 ports that had no WWW: entries in pkg-descr files. These
ports will not be touched in this commit.
The portlint port has been adjusted to expect a WWW entry in each port
Makefile, and to flag any remaining "WWW:" lines in pkg-descr files as
deprecated.

It also fixes a security issue, CVE-2022-1552:
Autovacuum, REINDEX, and others omit "security restricted operation" sandbox.
Versions Affected: 10 - 14. The security team typically does not test
unsupported versions, but this problem is quite old.
Autovacuum, REINDEX, CREATE INDEX, REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW, CLUSTER,
and pg_amcheck made incomplete efforts to operate safely when a
privileged user is maintaining another user's objects. Those commands
activated relevant protections too late or not at all. An attacker
having permission to create non-temp objects in at least one schema
could execute arbitrary SQL functions under a superuser identity.
While promptly updating PostgreSQL is the best remediation for most
users, a user unable to do that can work around the vulnerability by
disabling autovacuum, not manually running the above commands, and not
restoring from output of the pg_dump command. Performance may degrade
quickly under this workaround. VACUUM is safe, and all commands are fine
when a trusted user owns the target object.

Release notes: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/release/
This release contains a variety of fixes from the previous version.
A dump/restore is not required for those running the same major version.
However, note that installations using physical replication should
update standby servers before the primary server, as explained in the
release notes.
Also, several bugs have been found that may have resulted in corrupted
indexes, as explained in the next several changelog entries. If any of
those cases apply to you, it's recommended to reindex possibly-affected
indexes after updating.
This release also mitigates two possible man-in-the-middle attacks.
