Tighten security restrictions within <command>REFRESH MATERIALIZED
60+
VIEW CONCURRENTLY</command> (Heikki Linnakangas)
61+
</para>
62+
63+
<para>
64+
One step of a concurrent refresh command was run under weak security
65+
restrictions. If a materialized view's owner could persuade a
66+
superuser or other high-privileged user to perform a concurrent
67+
refresh on that view, the view's owner could control code executed
68+
with the privileges of the user running <command>REFRESH</command>.
69+
Fix things so that all user-determined code is run as the view's
70+
owner, as expected.
71+

72+
73+
<para>
74+
The only known exploit for this error does not work
75+
in <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> 16.0 and later, so it may
76+
be that v16 is not vulnerable in practice.

The <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> Project thanks Pedro
81+
Gallegos for reporting this problem.
