…-org#10214) The annotation conditions referenced the non-existent top-level .Values.existingSecret instead of .Values.auth.existingSecret, so the secret checksum annotation and the empty-secret gating never worked as intended when an existing secret wasn't supplied.
…rg#10251) CONCURRENTLY was being appended to the parenthesised option list alongside VERBOSE etc., which PostgreSQL rejects. It's not a parenthesizable option: it belongs standalone, between the object type keyword and the object name.
…min-org#9450) A role's membership tab only enabled the add/remove member controls for superusers and CREATEROLE holders, so a user who was themselves granted ADMIN OPTION on that role (and can therefore GRANT/REVOKE its membership at the SQL level) had no way to add other members, and hit a permission error server-side if they tried anyway. The role UI schema now also allows membership changes when the current user is a member of the role with admin=true. The backend mirrors this: permission.sql reports whether the connecting user holds ADMIN OPTION on the target role, and the update handler lets such a request through only when it's restricted to rolmembers changes, so this can't be used to escalate other role attributes.

Check the original request keys.
_validate_rolmembers mutates self.request before this check. It adds rol_members_list and rol_members_revoked_list. A valid ADMIN OPTION request that contains only rolmembers then fails this allowlist and returns 403.
Capture the client-supplied keys before validation. Check that saved key set here. Add an update-path regression test for a valid rolmembers payload.

Summary
The Group Role dialog's Membership tab only enabled the add/remove member controls (the "+" icon) for superusers and CREATEROLE holders. A user who was themselves granted
ADMIN OPTIONon that specific role - and who can thereforeGRANT/REVOKEits membership directly in SQL - had no way to add other members through the UI, and hit"The current user does not have permission to update the role."server-side if they tried some other way in.admin: true.permission.sqlnow also reports whether the connecting user holdsADMIN OPTIONon the target role (a directpg_auth_memberslookup, matching how the role's member list is already built elsewhere in this module). Theupdatepermission check lets such a user through, but the update handler then restricts what they're allowed to submit torolmemberschanges only, so this can't be used to escalate other role attributes (superuser, CREATEROLE, password, etc.) they otherwise have no permission to change.Fixes #9450.
