Re: How to get whether user has ALL permissions on table?

[dipti shah <shahdipti1980@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Kretschemer, the has_table_privilege  function returns true in following situation as well which is wrong.

 

techdb=> select pc.relname, pc.relacl from pg_class pc, pg_namespace pn where pc.relnamespace=pn.oid and pn.nspname='techdb' and pc.relname='techtable';
   relname    |                            relacl
--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------
 techtable    | {postgres=arwdDxt/postgres,=ar/postgres,user1=ar/postgres}
(1 row)

techdb=> SELECT has_table_privilege('user1', 'techdb.techtable', 'SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, TRUNCATE, REFERENCES, TRIGGER');
 has_table_privilege
---------------------
 t
(1 row)

techdb=>

Note that user1 has only insert and select permissions on techtable but still has_table returns true for all permissions. Am I missing anything?

 

Thanks,

Dipti

Right, you have to name all privileges.

The desired access privilege type is specified by a text string, which
must evaluate to one of the values SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE,
TRUNCATE, REFERENCES, or TRIGGER.
