It's not terribly hard to devise regular expressions that take large amounts of time and/or memory to process. Recent testing by Greg Stark has also shown that machines with small stack limits can be driven to stack overflow by suitably crafted regexps. While we intend to fix these things as much as possible, it's probably impossible to eliminate slow-execution cases altogether. In any case we don't want to treat such things as security issues. The history of that code should already discourage prudent DBAs from allowing execution of regexp patterns coming from possibly-hostile sources, but it seems like a good idea to warn about the hazard explicitly. Currently, similar_escape() allows access to enough of the underlying regexp behavior that the warning has to apply to SIMILAR TO as well. We might be able to make it safer if we tightened things up to allow only SQL-mandated capabilities in SIMILAR TO; but that would be a subtly non-backwards-compatible change, so it requires discussion and probably could not be back-patched. Per discussion among pgsql-security list. |

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: http://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 http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
