Hi, I'm trying create a SECURE TIER in my DB.
I need "dummys" tables that accept INSERTS from any users, then execute a RULE that insert the datas into the REAL table. The REAL tables accept INSERT only from "postgres user". This work fine ! But when I need the RULE calls a FUNCTION (plpgsql) for more detailed data manipulating, the FUNCTION runs with the normal user permissions, and not with the RULE permissions. Well, if a RULE calls the FUNCTION, the FUNCTION must run with the same RULEs permissions ... let-me show you. ---------------------------- \c - postgres create table teste (codigo int4, nome varchar (30) ); create table teste2 (codigo int4, nome varchar (30) ); grant ALL on teste2 TO joe; create rule teste2 as on insert to teste2 do insert into teste (codigo,nome) values (new.codigo,new.nome); \c - joe insert into teste (codigo,nome) values (1,'tulio'); --> PERMISSION DENIED ! - OK insert into teste2 (codigo,nome) values (1,'tulio'); --> INSERTS - OK select * from teste2; --> SHOW THE ROWS - OK \c - postgres select * from teste; --> SHOW THE ROWS - OK ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In this example, all is OK, but ... ---------------------------- \c - postgres create table teste (codigo int4, nome varchar (30) ); create table teste2 (codigo int4, nome varchar (30) ); grant ALL on teste2 TO joe; create function teste (integer,text) returns integer as ' begin insert into teste (codigo,nome) values ($1,$2); end;' language 'plpgsql'; create rule teste2 as on insert to teste2 do select teste (new.codigo::integer,new.nome::text); \c - joe insert into teste (codigo,nome) values (1,'tulio'); --> PERMISSION DENIED ! - OK insert into teste2 (codigo,nome) values (1,'tulio'); --> PERMISSION DENIED ON TESTE =============================>> NOT OK ------------------------ Sorry my English..... Do you undestand ?? Could you help-me ? I realy need make HEAVY consistencys, and I need a FUNCTION ... ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
