Обсуждение: BUG #16520: Deleting from non-existent column in CTE removes all rows

The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      16520
Logged by:          Jesse Lieberg
Email address:      jesse007@ymail.com
PostgreSQL version: 12.3
Operating system:   debian:buster-slim
Description:

Using the `postgres:12` docker image and given the following:
```
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS test;
CREATE TABLE test (
  id SERIAL,
  username varchar(32)
);
INSERT INTO test (username)
VALUES ('Jesse'), ('Jesse'), ('Scott'), ('Scott'), ('John');
```

This will throw an error that the column does not exist:
```
WITH to_delete AS (
  SELECT MIN(id), username
  FROM test
  GROUP BY username
  HAVING count(*) > 1
)
SELECT id
FROM to_delete;
```

However, the this will not return an error and instead deletes all rows:
```
WITH to_delete AS (
  SELECT MIN(id), username
  FROM test
  GROUP BY username
  HAVING count(*) > 1
)
DELETE FROM test
WHERE id IN (
  SELECT id
  FROM to_delete
);
```

Sure, because the columns exposed by to_delete are named "min" and
"username", not "id".

You've been bit by the standard SQL newbie trap that sub-selects
allow outer references.  That IN clause devolves to constant true
(at least for non-null id values, and with to_delete known not
empty), because it's just "id = id".
