From b050e5d8d7a07c793520c78bca1e290d8fb2152b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fujii Masao Date: Sat, 18 Jul 2026 01:21:12 +0900 Subject: [PATCH v2] Validate subscription conninfo on owner change For subscriptions using SERVER, changing the owner can change the effective connection string. However, ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... OWNER TO did not validate the generated conninfo for the new owner. As a result, ownership could be transferred to a non-superuser whose generated connection string did not satisfy password_required=true. The ownership change succeeded, but the subscription would fail later when the worker or another command tried to connect. Fix this by making ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... OWNER TO validate the new owner's generated conninfo with walrcv_check_conninfo(). --- doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_subscription.sgml | 7 +++++++ src/backend/commands/subscriptioncmds.c | 14 ++++++++++++-- src/test/regress/expected/subscription.out | 17 +++++++++++++++++ src/test/regress/regress.c | 9 +++++++++ src/test/regress/sql/subscription.sql | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 5 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_subscription.sgml b/doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_subscription.sgml index 8d64744375a..7e8fe561f2c 100644 --- a/doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_subscription.sgml +++ b/doc/src/sgml/ref/alter_subscription.sgml @@ -53,6 +53,13 @@ ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name RENAME TO < to alter the owner, you must be able to SET ROLE to the new owning role.
