From f416622be81d1320417bbc7892fd562cae0dba72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Noah Misch <noah@leadboat.com>

Subject: [PATCH] Fix handling of wide datetime input/output.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

commit f416622be81d1320417bbc7892fd562cae0dba72 REL9_2_STABLE

Many server functions use the MAXDATELEN constant to size a buffer for
parsing or displaying a datetime value.  It was much too small for the
longest possible interval output and slightly too small for certain
valid timestamp input, particularly input with a long timezone name.
The long input was rejected needlessly; the long output caused
interval_out() to overrun its buffer.  ECPG's pgtypes library has a copy
of the vulnerable functions, which bore the same vulnerabilities along
with some of its own.  In contrast to the server, certain long inputs
caused stack overflow rather than failing cleanly.  Back-patch to 8.4
(all supported versions).

Reported by Daniel Schüssler, reviewed by Tom Lane.

Security: CVE-2014-0063


Upstream-Status: Backport
