Hmm even though I have 'revoke all on type int2 from public' in my psql
history, I cannot repeat what I think was happening yesterday. Probably
I was still superuser in the window I was testing with, but will never
no until time travel is invented. Or maybe I tested with a cast.
Using a cast, it is possible to create a table with a code path through
OpenIntoRel:
session 1:
t=# revoke all on type int2 from public;
session2 :
t=> create table t2 (a int2);
ERROR: permission denied for type smallint
t=> create table t as (select 1::int2 as a);
SELECT 1
t=> \d t Table "public.t" Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+----------+----------- a | smallint |
t=>
Something different: as non superuser I get this error when restricting
a type I don't own:
t=> revoke all on type int2 from public;
ERROR: unrecognized objkind: 6
My current time is limited but I will be able to look more at the patch
in a few more days.
