It does not let anyone see config data out of the box: + CREATE VIEW pg_config AS + SELECT * FROM pg_config(); + + REVOKE ALL on pg_config FROM PUBLIC; + REVOKE EXECUTE ON FUNCTION pg_config() FROM PUBLIC; + But it does not have an explicit superuser check. I can add that if that's the consensus. Joe -- Crunchy Data - http://crunchydata.com PostgreSQL Support for Secure Enterprises Consulting, Training, & Open Source Development
