* Copy the relation name for error reporting in WCOsStephen Frost2015-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | In get_row_security_policies(), we need to make a copy of the relation name when building the WithCheckOptions structure, since RelationGetRelationName just returns a pointer into the local Relation structure. The relation name in the WCO structure is only used for error reporting. Pointed out by Robert and Christian Ullrich, who noted that the buildfarm members with -DCLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS were failing.
* RLS fixes, new hooks, and new test moduleStephen Frost2015-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In prepend_row_security_policies(), defaultDeny was always true, so if there were any hook policies, the RLS policies on the table would just get discarded. Fixed to start off with defaultDeny as false and then properly set later if we detect that only the default deny policy exists for the internal policies. The infinite recursion detection in fireRIRrules() didn't properly manage the activeRIRs list in the case of WCOs, so it would incorrectly report infinite recusion if the same relation with RLS appeared more than once in the rtable, for example "UPDATE t ... FROM t ...". Further, the RLS expansion code in fireRIRrules() was handling RLS in the main loop through the rtable, which lead to RTEs being visited twice if they contained sublink subqueries, which prepend_row_security_policies() attempted to handle by exiting early if the RTE already had securityQuals. That doesn't work, however, since if the query involved a security barrier view on top of a table with RLS, the RTE would already have securityQuals (from the view) by the time fireRIRrules() was invoked, and so the table's RLS policies would be ignored. This is fixed in fireRIRrules() by handling RLS in a separate loop at the end, after dealing with any other sublink subqueries, thus ensuring that each RTE is only visited once for RLS expansion. The inheritance planner code didn't correctly handle non-target relations with RLS, which would get turned into subqueries during planning. Thus an update of the form "UPDATE t1 ... FROM t2 ..." where t1 has inheritance and t2 has RLS quals would fail. Fix by making sure to copy in and update the securityQuals when they exist for non-target relations. process_policies() was adding WCOs to non-target relations, which is unnecessary, and could lead to a lot of wasted time in the rewriter and the planner. Fix by only adding WCO policies when working on the result relation. Also in process_policies, we should be copying the USING policies to the WITH CHECK policies on a per-policy basis, fix by moving the copying up into the per-policy loop. Lastly, as noted by Dean, we were simply adding policies returned by the hook provided to the list of quals being AND'd, meaning that they would actually restrict records returned and there was no option to have internal policies and hook-based policies work together permissively (as all internal policies currently work). Instead, explicitly add support for both permissive and restrictive policies by having a hook for each and combining the results appropriately. To ensure this is all done correctly, add a new test module (test_rls_hooks) to test the various combinations of internal, permissive, and restrictive hook policies.

* Fix column-privilege leak in error-message pathsStephen Frost2015-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While building error messages to return to the user, BuildIndexValueDescription, ExecBuildSlotValueDescription and ri_ReportViolation would happily include the entire key or entire row in the result returned to the user, even if the user didn't have access to view all of the columns being included. Instead, include only those columns which the user is providing or which the user has select rights on. If the user does not have any rights to view the table or any of the columns involved then no detail is provided and a NULL value is returned from BuildIndexValueDescription and ExecBuildSlotValueDescription. Note that, for key cases, the user must have access to all of the columns for the key to be shown; a partial key will not be returned. Further, in master only, do not return any data for cases where row security is enabled on the relation and row security should be applied for the user. This required a bit of refactoring and moving of things around related to RLS- note the addition of utils/misc/rls.c. Back-patch all the way, as column-level privileges are now in all supported versions. This has been assigned CVE-2014-8161, but since the issue and the patch have already been publicized on pgsql-hackers, there's no point in trying to hide this commit.
* Clean up some mess in row-security patches.Tom Lane2015-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix unsafe coding around PG_TRY in RelationBuildRowSecurity: can't change a variable inside PG_TRY and then use it in PG_CATCH without marking it "volatile". In this case though it seems saner to avoid that by doing a single assignment before entering the TRY block. I started out just intending to fix that, but the more I looked at the row-security code the more distressed I got. This patch also fixes incorrect construction of the RowSecurityPolicy cache entries (there was not sufficient care taken to copy pass-by-ref data into the cache memory context) and a whole bunch of sloppiness around the definition and use of pg_policy.polcmd. You can't use nulls in that column because initdb will mark it NOT NULL --- and I see no particular reason why a null entry would be a good idea anyway, so changing initdb's behavior is not the right answer. The internal value of '\0' wouldn't be suitable in a "char" column either, so after a bit of thought I settled on using '*' to represent ALL. Chasing those changes down also revealed that somebody wasn't paying attention to what the underlying values of ACL_UPDATE_CHR etc really were, and there was a great deal of lackadaiscalness in the catalogs.sgml documentation for pg_policy and pg_policies too. This doesn't pretend to be a complete code review for the row-security stuff, it just fixes the things that were in my face while dealing with the bugs in RelationBuildRowSecurity.

* Revert "Use a bitmask to represent role attributes"Alvaro Herrera2014-12-23
| | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 1826987a46d079458007b7b6bbcbbd852353adbb. The overall design was deemed unacceptable, in discussion following the previous commit message; we might find some parts of it still salvageable, but I don't want to be on the hook for fixing it, so let's wait until we have a new patch.
* Use a bitmask to represent role attributesAlvaro Herrera2014-12-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous representation using a boolean column for each attribute would not scale as well as we want to add further attributes. Extra auxilliary functions are added to go along with this change, to make up for the lost convenience of access of the old representation. Catalog version bumped due to change in catalogs and the new functions. Author: Adam Brightwell, minor tweaks by Álvaro Reviewed by: Stephen Frost, Andres Freund, Álvaro Herrera
* Rename pg_rowsecurity -> pg_policy and other fixesStephen Frost2014-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As pointed out by Robert, we should really have named pg_rowsecurity pg_policy, as the objects stored in that catalog are policies. This patch fixes that and updates the column names to start with 'pol' to match the new catalog name. The security consideration for COPY with row level security, also pointed out by Robert, has also been addressed by remembering and re-checking the OID of the relation initially referenced during COPY processing, to make sure it hasn't changed under us by the time we finish planning out the query which has been built. Robert and Alvaro also commented on missing OCLASS and OBJECT entries for POLICY (formerly ROWSECURITY or POLICY, depending) in various places. This patch fixes that too, which also happens to add the ability to COMMENT on policies. In passing, attempt to improve the consistency of messages, comments, and documentation as well. This removes various incarnations of 'row-security', 'row-level security', 'Row-security', etc, in favor of 'policy', 'row level security' or 'row_security' as appropriate. Happy Thanksgiving!
* Clean up includes from RLS patchStephen Frost2014-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The initial patch for RLS mistakenly included headers associated with the executor and planner bits in rewrite/rowsecurity.h. Per policy and general good sense, executor headers should not be included in planner headers or vice versa. The include of execnodes.h was a mistaken holdover from previous versions, while the include of relation.h was used for Relation's definition, which should have been coming from utils/relcache.h. This patch cleans these issues up, adds comments to the RowSecurityPolicy struct and the RowSecurityConfigType enum, and changes Relation->rsdesc to Relation->rd_rsdesc to follow Relation field naming convention. Additionally, utils/rel.h was including rewrite/rowsecurity.h, which wasn't a great idea since that was pulling in things not really needed in utils/rel.h (which gets included in quite a few places). Instead, use 'struct RowSecurityDesc' for the rd_rsdesc field and add comments explaining why. Lastly, add an include into access/nbtree/nbtsort.c for utils/sortsupport.h, which was evidently missed due to the above mess. Pointed out by Tom in 16970.1415838651@sss.pgh.pa.us; note that the concerns regarding a similar situation in the custom-path commit still need to be addressed.
* Code review for row security.Stephen Frost2014-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Buildfarm member tick identified an issue where the policies in the relcache for a relation were were being replaced underneath a running query, leading to segfaults while processing the policies to be added to a query. Similar to how TupleDesc RuleLocks are handled, add in a equalRSDesc() function to check if the policies have actually changed and, if not, swap back the rsdesc field (using the original instead of the temporairly built one; the whole structure is swapped and then specific fields swapped back). This now passes a CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS for me and should resolve the buildfarm error. In addition to addressing this, add a new chapter in Data Definition under Privileges which explains row security and provides examples of its usage, change \d to always list policies (even if row security is disabled- but note that it is disabled, or enabled with no policies), rework check_role_for_policy (it really didn't need the entire policy, but it did need to be using has_privs_of_role()), and change the field in pg_class to relrowsecurity from relhasrowsecurity, based on Heikki's suggestion. Also from Heikki, only issue SET ROW_SECURITY in pg_restore when talking to a 9.5+ server, list Bypass RLS in \du, and document --enable-row-security options for pg_dump and pg_restore. Lastly, fix a number of minor whitespace and typo issues from Heikki, Dimitri, add a missing #include, per Peter E, fix a few minor variable-assigned-but-not-used and resource leak issues from Coverity and add tab completion for role attribute bypassrls as well.
* Row-Level Security Policies (RLS)Stephen Frost2014-09-19
Building on the updatable security-barrier views work, add the ability to define policies on tables to limit the set of rows which are returned from a query and which are allowed to be added to a table. Expressions defined by the policy for filtering are added to the security barrier quals of the query, while expressions defined to check records being added to a table are added to the with-check options of the query. New top-level commands are CREATE/ALTER/DROP POLICY and are controlled by the table owner. Row Security is able to be enabled and disabled by the owner on a per-table basis using ALTER TABLE .. ENABLE/DISABLE ROW SECURITY. Per discussion, ROW SECURITY is disabled on tables by default and must be enabled for policies on the table to be used. If no policies exist on a table with ROW SECURITY enabled, a default-deny policy is used and no records will be visible. By default, row security is applied at all times except for the table owner and the superuser. A new GUC, row_security, is added which can be set to ON, OFF, or FORCE. When set to FORCE, row security will be applied even for the table owner and superusers. When set to OFF, row security will be disabled when allowed and an error will be thrown if the user does not have rights to bypass row security. Per discussion, pg_dump sets row_security = OFF by default to ensure that exports and backups will have all data in the table or will error if there are insufficient privileges to bypass row security. A new option has been added to pg_dump, --enable-row-security, to ask pg_dump to export with row security enabled. A new role capability, BYPASSRLS, which can only be set by the superuser, is added to allow other users to be able to bypass row security using row_security = OFF.
