| 941 | Pairs of base tables that have at least two columns with the same names and data types | What are the pairs of base tables that have at least two columns with the same names and data types. The tables might violate the principle of orthogonal design and hence might facilitate uncontrolled data redundancy over different tables. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA only | 2022-11-09 13:13 | MIT License | |
| 942 | Percentage of optional columns in each base table | What is the percentage of optional columns (that permit NULLs) in case of each base table? It is better to prohibit the use of NULLs in as many columns as possible. Otherwise the results of queries may be misleading. | Sofware measure | INFORMATION_SCHEMA only | 2020-11-08 20:55 | MIT License | |
| 943 | PL/pgSQL routines that use a cursor | Working with sets of rows rather than processing each row separately is more effective. | General | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-11-04 11:54 | MIT License | |
| 944 | Using routine name in front of a parameter name in a routine body to refer to the parameter of the routine | Write code that is easy to understand and not unnecessarily long. A routine cannot have two or more parameters with the same name. In this case using longer identifier in the form routine_name.parameter name is unnecessary. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-11-05 13:40 | MIT License | |
| 945 | Double negatives in Boolean expressions | Write code that is simple to understand and not confusing. A double negative is a grammatical construction occurring when two forms of negation are used in the same expression (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_negative). Double negatives in Boolean expressions make it more difficult to understand and maintain the code. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-02-25 17:29 | MIT License | |
| 946 | TG_ARGV is missing | Write correct code. If you pass arguments to a trigger function, then the function should use the arguments. TG_ARGV[]: "Data type array of text; the arguments from the CREATE TRIGGER statement. The index counts from 0. Invalid indexes (less than 0 or greater than or equal to tg_nargs) result in a null value." (PostgreSQL documentation) | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-02-25 17:30 | MIT License | |
| 947 | STATEMENT level triggers and ROW level AFTER triggers without RETURN NULL | Write correct code "The return value of a row-level trigger fired AFTER or a statement-level trigger fired BEFORE or AFTER is always ignored; it might as well be null." (PostgreSQL documentation) | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-02-25 17:30 | MIT License | |
| 948 | CHECK constraint cardinality is zero | Write correct constraints. Usually the constraint expression should refer to at least one column. A domain constraint expression should refer to the stub VALUE. For instance, the constraint CHECK(1=0) that is associated with a table T would prevent adding any rows to T. The value of the Boolean expression of this constraint is always FALSE. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2022-04-22 17:06 | MIT License | |
| 949 | Non-predefined character classes must not be between double square brackets | Write correct regular expressions. For instance, if there is a rule that code must consist of one or more digits, then correct expression is code~'^[0-9]+$', not code~'^[[0-9]]+$'. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2023-11-13 12:32 | MIT License | |
| 950 | Unbalanced brackets | Write expressions correctly. Find code fragments that have unbalanced brackets, i.e., the number of opening brackets is not the same as the number of closing brackets. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2024-01-24 16:02 | MIT License | |
| 951 | search_path should not be between quotation marks | Write security definer functions securely. Give to the DBMS correctly information about the sequence of schemas that constitute the search path. You shouldn't write search path value between quotation marks or apostrophes. Thus, instead of writing SET search_path = "public, pg_temp"; or SET search_path = 'public, pg_temp'; you should write SET search_path = public, pg_temp; | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-11-03 21:10 | MIT License | |
| 952 | Procedures cannot have START TRANSACTION and SAVEPOINT | You cannot use a START TRANSACTION or a SAVEPOINT statement in a procedure. Procedures appeared in PostgreSQL 11. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-11-04 11:50 | MIT License | |
| 953 | SECURITY DEFINER procedures cannot end transactions | You cannot use COMMIT and ROLLBACK in a SECURITY DEFINER procedure. Procedures appeared in PostgreSQL 11. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-11-04 12:12 | MIT License | |
| 954 | Explicit locking is probably not needed | You do not need explicit locking (LOCK TABLE or SELECT … FOR UPDATE) in case of routines that only search some data but do not modify any data and do not raise any exception. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog base tables | 2021-11-04 12:08 | MIT License | |

| 957 | Table privileges have been granted to PUBLIC | You should follow the principle of least privilege and thus not have in your database tables that usage privileges are granted to the pseudo-role PUBLIC, i.e., to all the database users now and in the future. | Problem detection | INFORMATION_SCHEMA only | 2021-02-25 17:30 | MIT License | |
| 958 | User-defined routine execution privilege has been granted to PUBLIC | You should follow the principle of least privilege and thus not have in your database user-defined routines that execution privilege is granted to PUBLIC, i.e., to all the database users now and in the future.
