set_user is a C library. set_user has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities and it has low support. However set_user has a Non-SPDX License. You can download it from GitHub.

This PostgreSQL extension allows switching users and optional privilege escalation with enhanced logging and control. It provides an additional layer of logging and control when unprivileged users must escalate themselves to superuser or object owner roles in order to perform needed maintenance tasks. Specifically, when an allowed user executes set_user(text) or set_user_u(text), several actions occur:. Only users with EXECUTE permission on set_user_u(text) may escalate to superuser. Additionally, all rules in Superuser Allowlist apply to set_user.superuser_allowlist and set_user_u(text). Postgres roles calling set_user(text) can only transition to roles listed or included in set_user.nosuperuser_target_allowlist (defaults to all roles). Additionally the logic in Nosuperuser Allowlist applies to current_user when set_user() is invoked. Additionally, with set_user('rolename','token') the token is stored for the lifetime of the session.

            Never pass the user id as plaintext through the parameters. Get it from the session instead. Its trivial for any malicous user to use the web inspector and simply fill in the hidden input and then upload a unseemly picture as ANY user.

            The session cookie is encrypted and much more difficult to tamper with.

            getters not update value in Vuex
            Asked 2021-May-13 at 10:13

            I don't understand how getters work in Vuex. The problem is when logging out the token in state and localStorage is becoming empty, but not in getters. In created I call this:

            ...

            ANSWER

            Answered 2021-May-13 at 10:13

            Getters are meant to compute derived state based on store state.

            You are facing this problem because you are returning the value of localStorage.getItem() from your Getter, which is not a value of the store state, thus it is not reactive nor observable.

            In your example, Vuex will not recompute the value of the Getter when you call localStorage.setItem().
            It will recompute the Getter's value only when state.user.token is changed.

            So, if you want to have the Getter working correctly, return just the value of state.user.token.
            You can also add a created hook in your App.vue that would check if there is a token in the localStorage and call the SET_TOKEN mutation, if that is what you were trying to accomplish by calling localStorage.getItem in your Getter:

            Your RestTuple conditional type is preventing the compiler from contextually inferring the callback parameter, as it would require inference to work "backwards" through the definition of RestTuple.

            Instead, I'd be inclined to make your function generic only in that tuple type T, like this:

            since you're using typescript with react, I believe you have added the getSpotifyUser function to your interface, now if you want to access that i think you should call it like this

            props.getSpotifyUser(access_token)

            and finally add it to your connect as a dispatch function that's wrapping your component

            your login component should be like this one

            ReactJS authentication routing component rendering before useEffect hook completes
            Asked 2021-Mar-27 at 14:04

            I'm trying to implement protected pages with Firebase authentication. I created a typical PrivateRoute component that is supposed to only show the page if they're logged in, or redirect users to a login page if they aren't logged in.

            I stored the authentication status in a global state using a useEffect hook in App.js. After a lot of reading and research, I understand that the useEffect only completes after the Child component has loaded.

            Having said that, I'm at a loss on how to pass authenticated from App to PrivateRoute. With my current code, the authenticated state only registers as true after PrivateRoute has pushed users to the login page. Would appreciate any help.

            Firebase ReactJS useEffect TypeError: Cannot read property 'uid' of null

            I'm new to ReactJS and web-dev in general. I know this questions gets asked a lot and I've tried a number of different solutions but none of them seem to have fixed my problem. I have Firebase user authentication that creates a document under a "user" collection when someone creates an account. The document ID is identical to the UID. I'm trying to get the field values stored in the document (fname, lname). I believe the problem is that currentUser.uid isn't being retrieved by the time the component renders? Sorry if I have the terminology wrong.

            The error occurs because currentUser is undefined when this blocks is executed, so you need to wait for auth been updated.

            Add auth as dependency in useEffect:

            Answered 2021-Mar-22 at 00:13

            Your login() function NEVER rejects the promise it returns so therefore await login() will never go to the catch. The login() function sometimes does return err, but that's just a value being returned, not a rejected promise. If you want the promise that login() returns to be rejected, then you must throw err instead of return err in login() from within your catch() block.
