| 60 | + <para> |
| 61 | + <function>pg_logfile_rotate()</function> is a deprecated wrapper |
| 62 | + for the core function <function>pg_rotate_logfile()</function>. |
| 63 | + When that function was changed to rely on SQL privileges for access |
| 64 | + control rather than a hard-coded superuser |
| 65 | + check, <function>pg_logfile_rotate()</function> should have been |
| 66 | + updated as well, but the need for this was missed. Hence, |
| 67 | + if <filename>adminpack</filename> is installed, any user could |
| 68 | + request a logfile rotation, creating a minor security issue. |
