Tom Lane	e6170126fc	Add gen_random_uuid() to contrib/pgcrypto. This function provides a way of generating version 4 (pseudorandom) UUIDs based on pgcrypto's PRNG. The main reason for doing this is that the OSSP UUID library depended on by contrib/uuid-ossp is becoming more and more of a porting headache, so we need an alternative for people who can't install that. A nice side benefit though is that this implementation is noticeably faster than uuid-ossp's uuid_generate_v4() function. Oskari Saarenmaa, reviewed by Emre Hasegeli	12 years ago

Tom Lane	458857cc9d	Throw a useful error message if an extension script file is fed to psql. We have seen one too many reports of people trying to use 9.1 extension files in the old-fashioned way of sourcing them in psql. Not only does that usually not work (due to failure to substitute for MODULE_PATHNAME and/or @extschema@), but if it did work they'd get a collection of loose objects not an extension. To prevent this, insert an \echo ... \quit line that prints a suitable error message into each extension script file, and teach commands/extension.c to ignore lines starting with \echo. That should not only prevent any adverse consequences of loading a script file the wrong way, but make it crystal clear to users that they need to do it differently now. Tom Lane, following an idea of Andrew Dunstan's. Back-patch into 9.1 ... there is not going to be much value in this if we wait till 9.2.	14 years ago
Tom Lane	029fac2264	Avoid use of CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION in extension installation files. It was never terribly consistent to use OR REPLACE (because of the lack of comparable functionality for data types, operators, etc), and experimentation shows that it's now positively pernicious in the extension world. We really want a failure to occur if there are any conflicts, else it's unclear what the extension-ownership state of the conflicted object ought to be. Most of the time, CREATE EXTENSION will fail anyway because of conflicts on other object types, but an extension defining only functions can succeed, with bad results.	15 years ago
Tom Lane	629b3af27d	Convert contrib modules to use the extension facility. This isn't fully tested as yet, in particular I'm not sure that the "foo--unpackaged--1.0.sql" scripts are OK. But it's time to get some buildfarm cycles on it. sepgsql is not converted to an extension, mainly because it seems to require a very nonstandard installation process.

Tom Lane	7d4838dca8	Remove pgcrypto functions that were deprecated and slated for removal. Marko Kreen	20 years ago
Neil Conway	1abf76e82c	"Annual" pgcrypto update from Marko Kreen: Few cleanups and couple of new things: - add SHA2 algorithm to older OpenSSL - add BIGNUM math to have public-key cryptography work on non-OpenSSL build. - gen_random_bytes() function The status of SHA2 algoritms and public-key encryption can now be changed to 'always available.' That makes pgcrypto functionally complete and unless there will be new editions of AES, SHA2 or OpenPGP standards, there is no major changes planned.	20 years ago
Peter Eisentraut	7f4f42fa10	Clean up CREATE FUNCTION syntax usage in contrib and elsewhere, in particular get rid of single quotes around language names and old WITH () construct.	20 years ago
Bruce Momjian	73e2431817	Major pgcrypto changes: of password-based encryption from RFC2440 (OpenPGP). The goal of this code is to be more featureful encryption solution than current encrypt(), which only functionality is running cipher over data. Compared to encrypt(), pgp_encrypt() does following: * It uses the equvialent of random Inital Vector to get cipher into random state before it processes user data * Stores SHA-1 of the data into result so any modification will be detected. * Remembers if data was text or binary - thus it can decrypt to/from text data. This was a major nuisance for encrypt(). * Stores info about used algorithms with result, so user needs not remember them - more user friendly! * Uses String2Key algorithms (similar to crypt()) with random salt to generate full-length binary key to be used for encrypting. * Uses standard format for data - you can feed it to GnuPG, if needed. Optional features (off by default): * Can use separate session key - user data will be encrypted with totally random key, which will be encrypted with S2K generated key and attached to result. * Data compression with zlib. * Can convert between CRLF<->LF line-endings - to get fully RFC2440-compliant behaviour. This is off by default as pgcrypto does not know the line-endings of user data. Interface is simple: pgp_encrypt(data text, key text) returns bytea pgp_decrypt(data text, key text) returns text pgp_encrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text) returns bytea pgp_decrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text) returns bytea To change parameters (cipher, compression, mdc): pgp_encrypt(data text, key text, parms text) returns bytea pgp_decrypt(data text, key text, parms text) returns text pgp_encrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text, parms text) returns bytea pgp_decrypt_bytea(data bytea, key text, parms text) returns bytea Parameter names I lifted from gpg: pgp_encrypt('message', 'key', 'compress-algo=1,cipher-algo=aes256') For text data, pgp_encrypt simply encrypts the PostgreSQL internal data. This maps to RFC2440 data type 't' - 'extenally specified encoding'. But this may cause problems if data is dumped and reloaded into database which as different internal encoding. My next goal is to implement data type 'u' - which means data is in UTF-8 encoding by converting internal encoding to UTF-8 and back. And there wont be any compatibility problems with current code, I think its ok to submit this without UTF-8 encoding by converting internal encoding to UTF-8 and back. And there wont be any compatibility problems with current code, I think its ok to submit this without UTF-8 support. Here is v4 of PGP encrypt. This depends on previously sent Fortuna-patch, as it uses the px_add_entropy function. - New function: pgp_key_id() for finding key id's. - Add SHA1 of user data and key into RNG pools. We need to get randomness from somewhere, and it is in user best interests to contribute. - Regenerate pgp-armor test for SQL_ASCII database. - Cleanup the key handling so that the pubkey support is less hackish.

Neil Conway	86897f54a8	This patch updates the DDL for contrib/pgcrypto to create all functions as STRICT, and all functions except gen_salt() as IMMUTABLE. gen_salt() is VOLATILE. Although the functions are now STRICT, I left their PG_ARGISNULL() checks in place as a protective measure for users who install the new code but use old (non-STRICT) catalog entries (e.g., restored from a dump). Per recent discussion in pgsql-hackers. Patch from Michael Fuhr.	21 years ago
Tom Lane	f85f43dfb5	Backend support for autocommit removed, per recent discussions. The only remnant of this failed experiment is that the server will take SET AUTOCOMMIT TO ON. Still TODO: provide some client-side autocommit logic in libpq.	23 years ago
Bruce Momjian	aa4c702eac	Update /contrib for "autocommit TO 'on'". Create objects in public schema. Make spacing/capitalization consistent. Remove transaction block use for object creation. Remove unneeded function GRANTs.	24 years ago
Tom Lane	6d6b3e911c	Add variants of digest() and hmac() that accept text inputs. Marko Kreen says: This is so obvious that I would like to make it 'official'. Seems like the theology around bytea<>text casting kept me from seeing the simple :)	24 years ago
Bruce Momjian	cff23429d6	I noticed that the contrib Makefiles were reorganized. Converted pgcrypto one too. * Changed default randomness source to libc random() That way pgcrypto does not have any external dependencies and should work everywhere. * Re-enabled pgcrypto build in contrib/makefile * contrib/README update - there is more stuff than only 'hash functions' * Noted the libc random fact in README.pgcrypto Marko Kreen	25 years ago
Bruce Momjian	ab56022864	Big thanks to Solar Designer who pointed out a bug in bcrypt salt generation code. He also urged using better random source and making possible to choose using bcrypt and xdes rounds more easily. So, here's patch: * For all salt generation, use Solar Designer's own code. This is mostly due fact that his code is more fit for get_random_bytes() style interface. * New function: gen_salt(type, rounds). This lets specify iteration count for algorithm. * random.c: px_get_random_bytes() function. Supported randomness soure: /dev/urandom, OpenSSL PRNG, libc random() Default: /dev/urandom. * Draft description of C API for pgcrypto functions. New files: API, crypt-gensalt.c, random.c Marko Kreen	25 years ago
Bruce Momjian	2518e27334	/contrib/pgcrypto: * remove support for encode() as it is in main tree now * remove krb5.c * new 'PX library' architecture * remove BSD license from my code to let the general PostgreSQL one to apply * md5, sha1: ANSIfy, use const where appropriate * various other formatting and clarity changes * hmac() * UNX-like crypt() - system or internal crypt Internal crypt: DES, Extended DES, MD5, Blowfish crypt-des.c, crypt-md5.c from FreeBSD crypt-blowfish.c from Solar Designer * gen_salt() for crypt() - Blowfish, MD5, DES, Extended DES * encrypt(), decrypt(), encrypt_iv(), decrypt_iv() * Cipher support in mhash.c, openssl.c * internal: Blowfish, Rijndael-128 ciphers * blf.[ch], rijndael.[ch] from OpenBSD * there will be generated file rijndael-tbl.inc.

Bruce Momjian	cb5427ee47	I would like to do a interface change in pgcrypto. (Good timing, I know :)) At the moment the digest() function returns hexadecimal coded hash, but I want it to return pure binary. I have also included functions encode() and decode() which support 'base64' and 'hex' encodings, so if anyone needs digest() in hex he can do encode(digest(...), 'hex'). Main reason for it is "to do one thing and do it well" :) Another reason is if someone needs really lot of digesting, in the end he wants to store the binary not the hexadecimal result. It is really silly to convert it to hex then back to binary again. As I said if someone needs hex he can get it. Well, and the real reason that I am doing encrypt()/decrypt() functions and _they_ return binary. For testing I like to see it in hex occasionally, but it is really wrong to let them return hex. Only now it caught my eye that hex-coding in digest() is wrong. When doing digest() I thought about 'common case' but hacking with psql is probably _not_ the common case :) Marko Kreen	25 years ago
Tom Lane	5bb2300b59	Revise handling of oldstyle/newstyle functions per recent discussions in pghackers list. Support for oldstyle internal functions is gone (no longer needed, since conversion is complete) and pg_language entry 'internal' now implies newstyle call convention. pg_language entry 'newC' is gone; both old and newstyle dynamically loaded C functions are now called language 'C'. A newstyle function must be identified by an associated info routine. See src/backend/utils/fmgr/README.	25 years ago
