I think if he can attach another partition, then he can split the partition.
currently ALTER TABLE ATTACH PARTITION requires the current user
both own the partitioned table and the to be attached partition.
for example:
begin;
create role alice;
create role bob;
GRANT all privileges on schema public to alice;
GRANT all privileges on schema public to bob;
set role bob;
create table at_partitioned (a int, b text) partition by range (a);
set role alice;
create table at_part_2 (b text, a int);
set role bob;
alter table at_partitioned attach partition at_part_2 for values from
(1000) to (2000); --should error
rollback;
----------------
begin;
create role alice;
create role bob;
GRANT all privileges on schema public to alice;
GRANT all privileges on schema public to bob;
set role bob;
create table at_partitioned (a int, b text) partition by range (a);
set role alice;
create table at_part_2 (b text, a int);
alter table at_partitioned attach partition at_part_2 for values from
(1000) to (2000); --should error
rollback;
P.S. maybe using sql examples can illustrate the idea more intuitively,
sometimes words may cause confusion.
