Thread: [PATCH] New default role allowing to change per-role/database settings

[PATCH] New default role allowing to change per-role/database settings

From
Michael Banck
Date:
Hi,

in today's world, some DBAs have no superuser rights, but we can
delegate them additional powers like CREATEDB or the pg_monitor default
role etc. Usually, the DBA can also view the database logs, either via
shell access or some web interface.

One thing that I personally find lacking is that it is not possible to
change role-specific log settings (like log_statement = 'mod' for a
security sensitive role) without being SUPERUSER as their GUC context is
"superuser". This makes setup auditing much harder if there is no
SUPERUSER access, also pgaudit then only allows to configure object-
based auditing. Amazon RDS e.g. has patched Postgres to allow the
cluster owner/pseudo-superuser `rds_superuser' to change those log
settings that define what/when we log something, while keeping the
"where to log" entries locked down.

The attached patch introduces a new guc context "administrator" (better
names/bikeshedding for this welcome) that is meant as a middle ground
between "superuser" and "user". It also adds a new default role
"pg_change_role_settings" (better names also welcome) that can be
granted to DBAs so that they can change the "administrator"-context GUCs
on a per-role (or per-database) basis. Whether the latter should be
included is maybe debatable, but I added both on the basis that they are
the same "source".

The initial set of "administrator" GUCs are all current GUCs with
"superuser" context from these categories:

* Reporting and Logging / What to Log
* Reporting and Logging / When to
Log
* Statistics / Query and Index Statistics Collector
* Statistics /
Monitoring

Of course, further categories (or particular GUCs) could be added now or
in the future, e.g. RDS also patches the following GUCs in their v12
offering:

* temp_file_limit
* session_replication_role

RDS does *not* patch log_transaction_sample_rate from "Reporting and
Logging / When to Log", but that might be more of an oversight than a
security consideration, or does anybody see a big problem with that
(compared to the others in that set)?

I initially pondered not introducing a new context but just filtering on
category, but as categories seem to be only descriptive in guc.c and not
used for any policy decisions so far, I have abandoned this pretty
quickly.


Thoughts?

Michael

If we're going to make the context be called 'administrator' then it
would seem like we should make the predefined role be
"pg_change_admin_settings"...?  Thoughts on that?

Just to be clear- the predefined role being added here actually allows a
user with this role to change both 'admin' and 'user' GUCs across all
databases and across all non-superuser roles, right?  (A bit
disappointed at the lack of any documentation included in this patch..
presumably that would have made it clear).

Being able to set temp_file_limit certainly seems appropriate.

I'm less sure about session_replication_role ...

I tend to agree that it should be included, I don't see any particular
reason why that would be worse than, say, log_statement.

Yeah, context is how these have been managed before and it seems to make
sense to continue with that general idea.

Yeah, generally no need to include that in the patch.

I don't really see an issue with this approach but I do have to admit to
wondering about ALTER SYSTEM.  Any thoughts regarding that..?

I have to admit to wondering if we should still require database owner
rights when it comes to this (that is- possibly require both?).  With
this approach, the user with the predefined role could change the
settings for any database, even one they don't have rights to connect
to..

Should drop the 'DEFAULT_' to match the others since the rename to
'predefined' roles went in.

Thanks!

Well, I think the "administrator" guc context would be much less visible
than a "pg_change_admin_settings" predefined role. As a user, I would
assume such a predefined role would provide something more universal
than what is proposed here. That could still be the case later on, of
course.

Maybe somebody else has another idea on naming things?

About all databases, see below for your suggestion to limit it to the
intersection of this predefined role and the database owner.

Not exactly sure what you mean with "both 'admin' and 'user' GUCs", but
yeah, one could classify the above categories as such I guess. Other
SUSET-GUCs like the developer options are not touched, though.

I did not
include documentation in the initial patch because I wasn't sure whether
there was any interest in it (and admittedly, the commitfest deadline
came up I think), I can work on that now.

I'll keep those two out for now.

That's a good point. I have to admit my itch was mostly about role-based 
settings and database-based settings are kinda in there as well.

I will
ponder this some more, but it seems to me it would be better to err on
the more restrictive side of things for now and we could open it up
later?

Here's a rebased version that also removes the ALTER DATABASE SET
capability from this new predefined role and adds some documentation.

The patch does not apply on Head anymore, could you rebase and post a
patch. I'm changing the status to "Waiting for Author".

Thanks for letting me know, I've attached a rebased v4 of this patch, no
other changes.

I tried it, but when I used set command, tab completion did not work properly and an error occurred.

Also, the patch doesn't apply anymore:

I'm switching the patch to Waiting on Author.

As discussed in [1], we're taking this opportunity to return some
patchsets that don't appear to be getting enough reviewer interest.

This is not a rejection, since we don't necessarily think there's
anything unacceptable about the entry, but it differs from a standard
"Returned with Feedback" in that there's probably not much actionable
feedback at all. Rather than code changes, what this patch needs is more
community interest. You might

- ask people for help with your approach,
- see if there are similar patches that your code could supplement,
- get interested parties to agree to review your patch in a CF, or
- possibly present the functionality in a way that's easier to review
  overall.

(Doing these things is no guarantee that there will be interest, but
it's hopefully better than endlessly rebasing a patchset that is not
receiving any feedback from the community.)

Once you think you've built up some community support and the patchset
is ready for review, you (or any interested party) can resurrect the
patch entry by visiting

    https://commitfest.postgresql.org/38/2918/

and changing the status to "Needs Review", and then changing the
status again to "Move to next CF". (Don't forget the second step;
hopefully we will have streamlined this in the near future!)

Thanks,
--Jacob
