Bug fixdblink_oci no longer sends IS [NOT] DISTINCT FROM predicates to Oracle, which rejects them with ORA-00908. EPAS now evaluates them locally.
Bug fixFixed ALTER TABLE ... ADD PARTITION so a new partition's privileges get the correct grantor when its owner differs from the root table's owner. Before, a later REVOKE on the partition could silently fail and leave the revoked role with access.#61718
Bug fixFixed the error cache lookup failed for type 0 when selecting an EXCEPTION declared in a package (SELECT pkg.exc). The query now resolves as it would for any non-variable name.
Bug fixFixed a potential crash or incorrect behavior when checking access to private package variables, caused by reading a catalog cache entry after it had been released.
Bug fixFixed incorrect --help text in edb-psql and EDB*Wrap.
Bug fixDBMS_PIPE now encrypts message payloads on disk when Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) is enabled. Before, they were written in cleartext.
