Обсуждение: Permission Problem for DELETE
Hi,
I've below data structure with listed permissions:
(commsrv@192.168.1.160:5432/test_1_5_0_0) [2008-05-27 09:34:32]
> \d commsrv.outgoingmessages
Table "commsrv.outgoingmessages"
Column | Type | Modifiers
------------------------+--------------------------------+-----------
messageid | bigint | not null
...
Indexes:
"pk_outgoingmessages_messageid" PRIMARY KEY, btree (messageid)
Triggers:
commsrv_outgoingmessages_update_for_emove
AFTER UPDATE ON outgoingmessages
FOR EACH ROW
EXECUTE PROCEDURE commsrv_outgoingmessages_update_for_emove()
(commsrv@192.168.1.160:5432/test_1_5_0_0) [2008-05-27 09:34:33]
> \z commsrv.outgoingmessages
Access privileges for database "test_1_5_0_0"
Schema | Name | Type | Access privileges
---------+------------------+-------+---------------------
commsrv | outgoingmessages | table | test=arwdxt/test
: emove=ad/test
: commsrv=arwdxt/test
(1 row)
PostgreSQL doesn't allow me to DELETE a row from
commsrv.outgoingmessages with emove role.
(emove@192.168.1.160:5432/test_1_5_0_0) [2008-05-27 09:37:11]
> EXPLAIN DELETE FROM commsrv.outgoingmessages WHERE messageid = 261120;
ERROR: permission denied for relation outgoingmessages
(emove@192.168.1.160:5432/test_1_5_0_0) [2008-05-27 09:37:17]
> DELETE FROM commsrv.outgoingmessages WHERE messageid = 261120;
ERROR: permission denied for relation outgoingmessages
Any ideas about what I might be missing?
Regards.

By the way, I just learnt that I cannot do INSERT too.
(emove@192.168.1.160:5432/test_1_5_0_0) [2008-05-27 14:47:01]
> INSERT INTO commsrv.outgoingmessages
SELECT messageid+1, vendorid, ...
FROM commsrv.outgoingmessages
ORDER BY messageid DESC
LIMIT 1;
ERROR: permission denied for relation outgoingmessages
I suspected, schema permissions first...
(emove@192.168.1.160:5432/test_1_5_0_0) [2008-05-27 14:46:58]
> \dn+ commsrv
List of schemas
Name | Owner | Access privileges | Description
---------+-------+--------------------------------------------+-------------
commsrv | test | {test=UC/test,commsrv=U/test,emove=U/test} |
But this doesn't look like to be the case.
Does anybody have an idea? What might I be missing? I'll be really
really appreciated for any kind of help.
Regards.

You don't have SELECT privilege, which is required to read any of the
columns in the WHERE clause.
(Not sure if this is explained anywhere in our manual :-(, but the
behavior is required by SQL spec.)

Hi,
I rarely use GRANT -- nearly once every 1-2 year -- and everytime I
forget this small detail: DELETE/INSERT/UPDATE privileges require SELECT
privilege also.

As far as I tested, even
DELETE FROM foo;
UPDATE foo SET bar = NULL;
commands _require_ SELECT permissions.

Would attached patch be a first step for that purpose?
Regards.

Well, you tested wrong then. It works as expected for me, which is
that you need SELECT if the query involves fetching any existing
column value:
regression=# create user joe;
CREATE ROLE
regression=# create table foo (f1 int, f2 int);
CREATE TABLE
regression=# grant delete , update on table foo to joe;
GRANT
regression=# \c - joe
You are now connected to database "regression" as user "joe".
regression=> update foo set f1 = null;
UPDATE 0
regression=> update foo set f1 = f2;
ERROR: permission denied for relation foo
regression=> delete from foo;
DELETE 0
regression=> delete from foo where f1 = 42;
ERROR: permission denied for relation foo
regression=>

Pff... Sorry for the noise. (I created example table under a differrent
schema than "public" to be able to test effects of schema priviliges to
INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE commands, but I somehow forgot that detail later.)
I updated the doc patch.
Regards.

I applied a docs patch for this, though not exactly what you sent in.
Thanks for pointing out the omission.
