Subject: pgsql: Set GUC "is_superuser" in all processes that set AuthenticatedUs
Date: Mon, 06 Nov 2023 14:17:12 +0000
Message-ID: <E1r00Pg-004Bb9-0M@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)

Set GUC "is_superuser" in all processes that set AuthenticatedUserId.

It was always false in single-user mode, in autovacuum workers, and in
background workers.  This had no specifically-identified security
consequences, but non-core code or future work might make it
security-relevant.  Back-patch to v11 (all supported versions).
