Thank you for continuing your work on the subject. The patches
currently doesn't apply cleanly. Please, rebase.
I think getting away from expandTableLikeClause() is the right
direction to resolve the security problems. That looks great, it
finally not as complex as I thought. I think the code requires some
polishing: you need to revise the comments given its not part of LIKE
clause handling anymore.
I see fixes for the issues mentioned in [1] and [2] are still not
implemented. Do you plan to do this in this release cycle?
