postgresql-9.6 (9.6.8-0ubuntu0.17.10) artful-security; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release (LP: #1752271)
    If you run an installation in which not all users are mutually
    trusting, or if you maintain an application or extension that is
    intended for use in arbitrary situations, it is strongly recommended
    that you read the documentation changes described in the first changelog
    entry below, and take suitable steps to ensure that your installation or
    code is secure.

    Also, the changes described in the second changelog entry below may
    cause functions used in index expressions or materialized views to fail
    during auto-analyze, or when reloading from a dump.  After upgrading,
    monitor the server logs for such problems, and fix affected functions.

    - Document how to configure installations and applications to guard
      against search-path-dependent trojan-horse attacks from other users

      Using a search_path setting that includes any schemas writable by a
      hostile user enables that user to capture control of queries and then
      run arbitrary SQL code with the permissions of the attacked user. While
      it is possible to write queries that are proof against such hijacking,
      it is notationally tedious, and it's very easy to overlook holes.
      Therefore, we now recommend configurations in which no untrusted schemas
      appear in one's search path.
      (CVE-2018-1058)

    - Avoid use of insecure search_path settings in pg_dump and other client
      programs

      pg_dump, pg_upgrade, vacuumdb and other PostgreSQL-provided applications
      were themselves vulnerable to the type of hijacking described in the
      previous changelog entry; since these applications are commonly run by
      superusers, they present particularly attractive targets.  To make them
      secure whether or not the installation as a whole has been secured,
      modify them to include only the pg_catalog schema in their search_path
      settings. Autovacuum worker processes now do the same, as well.

      In cases where user-provided functions are indirectly executed by these
      programs -- for example, user-provided functions in index expressions --
      the tighter search_path may result in errors, which will need to be
      corrected by adjusting those user-provided functions to not assume
      anything about what search path they are invoked under.  That has always
      been good practice, but now it will be necessary for correct behavior.
      (CVE-2018-1058)

postgresql-9.6 (9.6.7-0ubuntu0.17.10) artful-security; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release (LP: #1747676)
    - Ensure that all temporary files made by pg_upgrade are non-world-readable
      (CVE-2018-1053)
    - Change the behavior of contrib/cube's cube ~> int operator to make it
      compatible with KNN search.
      The meaning of the second argument (the dimension selector) has been
      changed to make it predictable which value is selected even when
      dealing with cubes of varying dimensionalities.
      This is an incompatible change, but since the point of the operator
      was to be used in KNN searches, it seems rather useless as-is.
      After installing this update, any expression indexes or materialized
      views using this operator will need to be reindexed/refreshed.

    + Fix a race condition that could cause indexes built with CREATE INDEX
      CONCURRENTLY to be corrupt (Pavan Deolasee, Tom Lane)

      If CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY was used to build an index that depends on
      a column not previously indexed, then rows inserted or updated by
      transactions that ran concurrently with the CREATE INDEX command could
      have received incorrect index entries.  If you suspect this may have
      happened, the most reliable solution is to rebuild affected indexes
      after installing this update.

  * Update watch file to use https.

    krb5-multidev) to unbreak co-installation with libssl1.0-dev.

postgresql-9.6 (9.6.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release.

    A dump/restore is not required for those running 9.6.X.

    However, if your installation has been affected by the bugs described in
    the first two changelog entries below, then after updating you may need
    to take action to repair corrupted free space maps and/or visibility
    maps.

    + Fix WAL-logging of truncation of relation free space maps and visibility
      maps (Pavan Deolasee, Heikki Linnakangas)

      It was possible for these files to not be correctly restored during
      crash recovery, or to be written incorrectly on a standby server. Bogus
      entries in a free space map could lead to attempts to access pages that
      have been truncated away from the relation itself, typically producing
      errors like could not read block XXX: read only 0 of 8192 bytes.
      Checksum failures in the visibility map are also possible, if
      checksumming is enabled.

      Procedures for determining whether there is a problem and repairing it
      if so are discussed at
      https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Free_Space_Map_Problems.

    + Fix possible data corruption when pg_upgrade rewrites a relation
      visibility map into 9.6 format (Tom Lane)

      On big-endian machines, bytes of the new visibility map were written in
      the wrong order, leading to a completely incorrect map.  On Windows, the
      old map was read using text mode, leading to incorrect results if the
      map happened to contain consecutive bytes that matched a carriage
      return/line feed sequence.  The latter error would almost always lead to
      a pg_upgrade failure due to the map file appearing to be the wrong
      length.

      If you are using a big-endian machine (many non-Intel architectures are
      big-endian) and have used pg_upgrade to upgrade from a pre-9.6 release,
      you should assume that all visibility maps are incorrect and need to be
      regenerated.  It is sufficient to truncate each relation's visibility
      map with contrib/pg_visibility's pg_truncate_visibility_map() function.
      For more information see
      https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Visibility_Map_Problems.

    + Substantial performance improvements, especially in the area of
      improving scalability on many-CPU servers

  * Record PostgreSQL catalog version number in .deb control file and a file
    inside the .deb. Hook into preinst/postinst logic in postgresql-common 171
    to handle catalog version bumps.
