From f02e9be5000c9a907b7737745a3a8823f8d2c3c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ashesh Vashi Date: Sat, 13 Jun 2026 01:05:26 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] docs(release-notes): backfill 9.16 entries from master commits Add 14 release-note entries that were merged on master but not yet captured in the 9.16 notes: 1 new feature (#2431), 6 housekeeping (#9817, #9866, #9917, #9959, #10014, #10023) and 7 bug fixes (#9701, #9782, #9933, #9952, #9985, #10013, #10030). Entries inserted in numeric order within each section. Also add an "Additional changes (no associated issue) -> Dependencies" section mirroring the 9.15 format, listing net direct dep bumps between REL-9_15 and HEAD across Python (requirements.txt, tools/requirements.txt, web/regression/requirements.txt), web/ package.json, and runtime/package.json. Transitive yarn resolutions and the setuptools pin (covered by bug fix #9829) are excluded. --- docs/en_US/release_notes_9_16.rst | 47 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 47 insertions(+) diff --git a/docs/en_US/release_notes_9_16.rst b/docs/en_US/release_notes_9_16.rst index 998aac478..266f9867b 100644 --- a/docs/en_US/release_notes_9_16.rst +++ b/docs/en_US/release_notes_9_16.rst @@ -26,6 +26,7 @@ Bundled PostgreSQL Utilities New features ************ + | `Issue #2431 `_ - Added an option to colourize panel and tab headers based on the connected server's colour, making it easier to tell which server a tab is connected to at a glance. | `Issue #9301 `_ - Added a "Back to login" link to the Forgot Password and Reset Password pages. | `Issue #9626 `_ - Add support for the TOAST tuple target storage parameter in the Materialized View dialog. | `Issue #9646 `_ - Make the init container security context in the Helm chart configurable via containerSecurityContext, consistent with the main container. @@ -34,8 +35,14 @@ New features Housekeeping ************ + | `Issue #9817 `_ - Correct the macOS Replace keyboard shortcut documented in the Query Tool toolbar reference. + | `Issue #9866 `_ - Fix a typo in the PGPASS_FILE environment-variable documentation and clarify its behaviour. + | `Issue #9917 `_ - Update the Italian translation. + | `Issue #9959 `_ - Bump Electron in the desktop runtime from 41.5.0 to 42.1.0 and pin the packaged Electron version. | `Issue #9981 `_ - Clarify the SSH tunnel "Prompt for identity file password?" switch label and help text to indicate it applies only to identity-file authentication. + | `Issue #10014 `_ - Document the Kubernetes init-container tag-mismatch and RollingUpdate hazards on shared data volumes. | `Issue #10018 `_ - Remove the EDB BigAnimal cloud deployment support. + | `Issue #10023 `_ - Bump JavaScript and Python third-party dependencies, including cryptography, axios, shell-quote, and assorted dependabot lockfile updates. | `Issue #10049 `_ - Bump vulnerable transitive dependencies (tar, flatted) to clear security advisories. | `Issue #10050 `_ - Rebase the version-specific SQL templates so the default targets PostgreSQL 14, the oldest supported server version, dropping the obsolete sub-14 template buckets. | `Issue #10063 `_ - Strip the foreign-architecture slice from the macOS bundle so single-arch builds no longer ship the universal2 Python framework's unused arm64/x86_64 code. @@ -51,8 +58,10 @@ Bug fixes | `Issue #9128 `_ - Fixed an issue where the object breadcrumbs popup blocked clicks on the object explorer items beneath it. | `Issue #9595 `_ - Fix missing ALTER ...

Reported by Geo. | `Issue #10027 `_ - Fix the spurious "Crypt key is missing" error and logged traceback in the Query Tool new-connection endpoints after a backend restart, by surfacing it as the standard CRYPTKEY_MISSING response so the client recovers transparently. | `Issue #10028 `_ - Fix open redirect in the multi-factor authentication flow via an unvalidated 'next' parameter that allowed a crafted link to redirect an authenticated victim to an attacker-controlled host (CVE-2026-12049). Reported by Mai Phạm Hiền. | `Issue #10029 `_ - Fixed a regression where the rectangular (block/column) text selection in the code editor stopped working; restored the default Alt+drag selection without re-introducing the crosshair cursor on Alt+F5 (#9570). + | `Issue #10030 `_ - Accept prepare and binary keyword arguments in DictCursor.execute() so callers using the modern psycopg API no longer raise TypeError. | `Issue #10059 `_ - Fix the generated SQL for editing a SQL-language function/procedure whose body contains the word "return" (e.g. a RETURNING clause), which was wrongly treated as a SQL-standard body and produced a statement without the AS $BODY$ wrapper. | `Issue #10068 `_ - Fix critical stored cross-site scripting where PostgreSQL server error text and Explain plan-node content passed through html-react-parser across notifier toasts, form errors, modal alerts, and the Explain visualiser. Because pgAdmin's default Content-Security-Policy allows inline script and an iframe ``srcdoc`` inherits the embedding origin, the injected JavaScript ran same-origin to the victim's authenticated pgAdmin session and could read every saved server connection credential and issue arbitrary SQL against every server the victim was connected to (CVE-2026-12048). Reported by Fernando Bortotti. | `Issue #10069 `_ - Fix HTML injection in the cloud deployment module (RDS, Azure, Google) where SDK exception text was forwarded to the browser unsanitised and rendered through html-react-parser in the Cloud Wizard (CVE-2026-12047). Reported by Fernando Bortotti. | `Issue #10072 `_ - Fix two SQL Editor endpoints (close and update_connection) missing the ``@pga_login_required`` decorator, making them reachable without authentication in server mode and exposing a pickle deserialization sink (CVE-2026-12046). Reported by Fernando Bortotti. | `Issue #10078 `_ - Fix SQL injection across sixteen dialog templates that rendered ``COMMENT ON ... IS ''`` and the related ``pgstattuple``/``pgstatindex`` stats sinks, where a low-privilege user could plant a table or index name containing an apostrophe and a superuser viewing statistics on the object would trigger SQL execution under the superuser role. The fix switches the affected templates to the ``qtLiteral`` escape filter and rewrites the ``pgstattuple``/``pgstatindex`` calls to address the relation via OID with a ``::oid::regclass`` cast, eliminating the embedded string-literal call form entirely. Also hardens ``qtLiteral`` to raise instead of silently returning raw values when ``conn`` is falsy (CVE-2026-12044).
