Tom Lane 4a59796840 Fix SPI_getvalue and SPI_getbinval to range-check the given attribute number
according to the TupleDesc's natts, not the number of physical columns in the
tuple.  The previous coding would do the wrong thing in cases where natts is
different from the tuple's column count: either incorrectly report error when
it should just treat the column as null, or actually crash due to indexing off
the end of the TupleDesc's attribute array.  (The second case is probably not
possible in modern PG versions, due to more careful handling of inheritance
cases than we once had.  But it's still a clear lack of robustness here.)

The incorrect error indication is ignored by all callers within the core PG
distribution, so this bug has no symptoms visible within the core code, but
it might well be an issue for add-on packages.  So patch all the way back.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

The JDBC, ODBC, C++, Python, and Tcl interfaces have been moved to the
PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate
maintenance.  A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/.  For more information look at our web
site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
