Hello Hackers,
Please find the attached patch for below fixes:
- Added validation for table row data that should not be larger than the field size.
- Rearrange the existing functions to add validation.
- Added test cases.

Hi Navnath,
You have compared the column's internal size with the length of the value given by the user.
For example, column having integer would have internal size 4 and if I give the value 12121 which is the correct input for the field will fail here because as per your logic column internal size (4) < len(value) (5).
I think this implementation is not correct here.
Thanks,
Khushboo

Yes, my implementations might be wrong.
Below are some important findings on the parameterised query(as we are using Jinja templates for building SQL queries).
Here I have created a table 'account' with some records in it.
CREATE TABLE public.account
(
user_id integer NOT NULL,
username character varying(5)
(
user_id integer NOT NULL,
username character varying(5)
)
psycopg2 throws a proper error if I pass username value greater than the length of the data type(5)
Now, I want to pass username value greater than data type length (5)
Scenario 1: Query with data type and length
import psycopg2
try:
conn = psycopg2.connect("dbname='postgres' user='postgres' host='XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' password='test' port=5432")
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("UPDATE public.account SET username = %(username)s::character varying(5) WHERE user_id = 1;", {"username": "username-test-123"})
cur.execute("COMMIT;")
except Exception as e:
print('Exception : {0}'.format(e))
Output:
It will save the record with 5 char data without any error.
psql output:
postgres=# select * from public.account;
user_id | username
---------+----------
1 | usern
(1 row)
Scenario 2: Query with only data typeimport psycopg2
try:
conn = psycopg2.connect("dbname='postgres' user='postgres' host='XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' password='test' port=5432")
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("UPDATE public.account SET username = %(username)s::character varying WHERE user_id = 1;", {"username": "username-test-123"})
cur.execute("COMMIT;")
except Exception as e:
print('Exception : {0}'.format(e))Output:
Exception : value too long for type character varying(5)data will not save in the table.
Scenario 3: Query without data typeimport psycopg2
try:
conn = psycopg2.connect("dbname='postgres' user='postgres' host='XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' password='test' port=5432")
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("UPDATE public.account SET username = %(username)s WHERE user_id = 1;", {"username": "username-test-123"})
cur.execute("COMMIT;")
except Exception as e:
print('Exception : {0}'.format(e))Output:
Exception : value too long for type character varying(5)again data will not save in the table.
These are some different behaviours with psycopg2. So to complete this patch which apporach should I follow? or any new approach is also welcome.
Thanks!

Hi,
To get an error we need to remove the typecasting in update. I think we should close the bug with no change.

Hi,
I think we should remove the type cast from query during update and whatever error is thrown should be shown to UI as per scenario 3.

Scenario 3 seems correct to me. No need to type cast.

Removing the typecast will almost certainly lead to other problems. I think we should just remove the length from it.

Hello,
We are sending the data to backend and depending on errors from backend. Any thoughts on implementation of basic fronted validations? so that we can alert user before it clicks on save button.

We should not try to implement the database functionality in JavaScript. One of the important reason for the same, we would never be able to understand each and every types supported by PG/PEM.

(
user_id integer NOT NULL,
username character varying(5))psycopg2 throws a proper error if I pass username value greater than the length of the data type(5)Now, I want to pass username value greater than data type length (5)Scenario 1: Query with data type and lengthimport psycopg2
try:
conn = psycopg2.connect("dbname='postgres' user='postgres' host='XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' password='test' port=5432")
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("UPDATE public.account SET username = %(username)s::character varying(5) WHERE user_id = 1;", {"username": "username-test-123"})
cur.execute("COMMIT;")
except Exception as e:
print('Exception : {0}'.format(e))Output:
It will save the record with 5 char data without any error.
psql output:
postgres=# select * from public.account;
user_id | username
---------+----------
1 | usern
(1 row)Scenario 2: Query with only data typeimport psycopg2
try:
conn = psycopg2.connect("dbname='postgres' user='postgres' host='XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' password='test' port=5432")
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("UPDATE public.account SET username = %(username)s::character varying WHERE user_id = 1;", {"username": "username-test-123"})
cur.execute("COMMIT;")
except Exception as e:
print('Exception : {0}'.format(e))Output:
Exception : value too long for type character varying(5)data will not save in the table.
We can consider scenario 2 as it will throw the valid exception and also typecast the value in the proper format.
Scenario 3: Query without data typeimport psycopg2
try:
conn = psycopg2.connect("dbname='postgres' user='postgres' host='XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX' password='test' port=5432")
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute("UPDATE public.account SET username = %(username)s WHERE user_id = 1;", {"username": "username-test-123"})
cur.execute("COMMIT;")
except Exception as e:
print('Exception : {0}'.format(e))Output:
Exception : value too long for type character varying(5)again data will not save in the table.
These are some different behaviours with psycopg2. So to complete this patch which apporach should I follow? or any new approach is also welcome.
Thanks!
