General

Before this PR:
PostgreSQL driver 42.3.3 has a CVE. 42.2.26 and 42.4.1 have fixes for CVE-2022-31197.
Large internal product has picked up 42.4.1.
After this PR:

==COMMIT_MSG==
Bump PostgreSQL driver from 42.3.3 -> 42.4.1 to remediate CVE-2022-31197
==COMMIT_MSG==

Priority: P0

Concerns / possible downsides (what feedback would you like?):
Is this safe?! Internal product uses this version, and has done for a week. The difference in versions is 6 months, so changelog hunting yields limited results.

Is documentation needed?:
Changelog at least.

Compatibility

Does this PR create any API breaks (e.g. at the Java or HTTP layers) - if so, do we have compatibility?:
N/A
Does this PR change the persisted format of any data - if so, do we have forward and backward compatibility?:
Not according to changelogs.

The code in this PR may be part of a blue-green deploy. Can upgrades from previous versions safely coexist? (Consider restarts of blue or green nodes.):
Nothing that indicates otherwise from changelogs.

Does this PR rely on statements being true about other products at a deployment - if so, do we have correct product dependencies on these products (or other ways of verifying that these statements are true)?:
Nothing that indicates otherwise from changelogs.

Does this PR need a schema migration?
No

Testing and Correctness

What, if any, assumptions are made about the current state of the world? If they change over time, how will we find out?:
None
What was existing testing like? What have you done to improve it?:
No changes
If this PR contains complex concurrent or asynchronous code, is it correct? The onus is on the PR writer to demonstrate this.:
N/A
If this PR involves acquiring locks or other shared resources, how do we ensure that these are always released?:
N/A

Execution

How would I tell this PR works in production? (Metrics, logs, etc.):
No change in any metrics or logs.

Has the safety of all log arguments been decided correctly?:
N/A
Will this change significantly affect our spending on metrics or logs?:
N/A
How would I tell that this PR does not work in production? (monitors, etc.):
AtlasDB fails to connect to Postgres. AtlasDB fails transactions with Postgres that previously succeeded/
If this PR does not work as expected, how do I fix that state? Would rollback be straightforward?:
Rollback.
If the above plan is more complex than “recall and rollback”, please tag the support PoC here (if it is the end of the week, tag both the current and next PoC):
That's me!

Scale

Would this PR be expected to pose a risk at scale? Think of the shopping product at our largest stack.:
N/A
Would this PR be expected to perform a large number of database calls, and/or expensive database calls (e.g., row range scans, concurrent CAS)?:
N/A
Would this PR ever, with time and scale, become the wrong thing to do - and if so, how would we know that we need to do something differently?:
N/A

Development Process

Where should we start reviewing?:
It's +2 -2
If this PR is in excess of 500 lines excluding versions lock-files, why does it not make sense to split it?:
...
Please tag any other people who should be aware of this PR:

should we bump to 42.4.2 or 42.5.0? see #6206

From https://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/changelog.html#version_42.5.0

Version 42.5.0 (2022-08-24)

Notable changes

Changed

Version 42.4.2 (2022-08-17)

Notable changes

Changed

Added

  • fix: make setObject accept UUID array PR #2587

Fixed

  • fix: regression with GSS. Changes introduced to support building with Java 17 caused failures Issue #2588
  • fix: set a timeout to get the return from requesting SSL upgrade. PR #2572
  • feat: synchronize statement executions (e.g. avoid deadlock when Connection.isValid is executed from concurrent threads)

Version 42.4.1 (2022-08-03)

Notable changes

Security

  • fix: CVE-2022-31197 Fixes SQL generated in PgResultSet.refresh() to escape column identifiers so as to prevent SQL injection.
    Previously, the column names for both key and data columns in the table were copied as-is into the generated SQL. This allowed a malicious table with column names that include statement terminator to be parsed and executed as multiple separate commands.
    Also adds a new test class ResultSetRefreshTest to verify this change.
    Reported by Sho Kato

For safety, I went with the version that has the fix and that our large internal postgres user uses. We can definitely evaluate going higher (and evaluating the risks), but I think we should stick to the lower version that's been tested. cc @jeremyk-91 in case you have other thoughts!

let's get this out first, we can do the .5.0 one in a bit once things are stabler? We've had historic badness with this driver in the past unfortunately
