## PostgreSQL Tale

Die PostgreSQL-databasis waartoe jy toegang het, mag verskillende **skripting tale geïnstalleer** hê wat jy kan misbruik om **arbitraire kode** uit te voer.

Jy kan **hulle aan die gang kry**:
```sql
\dL *

SELECT lanname,lanpltrusted,lanacl FROM pg_language;
```
Die meeste van die skripting tale wat jy in PostgreSQL kan installeer het **2 variasies**: die **vertroude** en die **onvertroude**. Die **onvertroude** sal 'n naam hê wat **eindig op "u"** en sal die weergawe wees wat jou toelaat om **kode** uit te voer en ander interessante funksies te gebruik. Dit is tale wat, indien geïnstalleer, interessant is:

- **plpythonu**
- **plpython3u**
- **plperlu**
- **pljavaU**
- **plrubyu**
- ... (enige ander programmeertaal wat 'n onveilige weergawe gebruik)

> [!WARNING]
> As jy vind dat 'n interessante taal **geïnstalleer** is maar **onvertroude** deur PostgreSQL (**`lanpltrusted`** is **`false`**) kan jy probeer om dit **te vertrou** met die volgende lyn sodat geen beperkings deur PostgreSQL toegepas sal word nie:
>
> ```sql
> UPDATE pg_language SET lanpltrusted=true WHERE lanname='plpythonu';
> # Om jou regte oor die tabel pg_language te kontroleer
> SELECT * FROM information_schema.table_privileges WHERE table_name = 'pg_language';
> ```

> [!CAUTION]
> As jy nie 'n taal sien nie, kan jy probeer om dit te laai met (**jy moet superadmin wees**):
>
> ```
> CREATE EXTENSION plpythonu;
> CREATE EXTENSION plpython3u;
> CREATE EXTENSION plperlu;
> CREATE EXTENSION pljavaU;
> CREATE EXTENSION plrubyu;
> ```

Let daarop dat dit moontlik is om die veilige weergawes as "onveilig" te kompileer. Kyk na [**hierdie**](https://www.robbyonrails.com/articles/2005/08/22/installing-untrusted-pl-ruby-for-postgresql.html) byvoorbeeld. Dit is altyd die moeite werd om te probeer of jy kode kan uitvoer selfs al vind jy net die **vertroude** een geïnstalleer.
