Tell server-mode password exec commands whether the server was shared, and by whom. #10703 - #10738
In server mode a SERVER_PASSEXEC_COMMANDS command only received host, port, username and database, all of which the user editing the server can set, so a user could copy a shared server's host and username into a server of their own, pick the same command and be handed the shared server's password.
Commands now also receive these variables, read from the server's own row and its owner rather than from a non-owner's per-user overlay, so a user who does not own the server cannot change them:
PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SHARED: true if the server is shared and owned by another pgAdmin user, false otherwise (including for the owner).
PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SERVER_ID
PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SERVER_OWNER and PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SERVER_OWNER_AUTH_SOURCE (username plus auth source, since that pair is what is unique).
PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SERVER_GROUP: the owner's group, which is the one OAUTH2_SERVER_GROUP_CLAIM is checked against, so for a claim-restricted OAuth2 user it is the group that granted access.
The config.py comment and server_dialog.rst say which values a command can rely on: with SHARED=true and a trusted owner, host, port and maintenance database are owner-controlled; the database username is still per-user; and a group name means nothing without the owner check, because any user can name one of their own groups the same as an admin's.
The user's full list of claim groups is not passed; the server group already identifies the group that granted access.
Test plan
utils.tests.test_passexec_shared_details (new): real rows for an admin's shared server filed by another user under their own group, plus that user's lookalike server with the same host, username and group name.
utils.tests.test_passexec_resolve, test_passexec_server, and the other passexec, shared server and manager staleness suites.
Password execution commands now receive server details, including sharing status, server ID, owner, owner authentication source, and the owner’s server group.
Password execution details refresh when a server’s sharing, ownership, or group information changes.
Documentation
Clarified which server details are owner-controlled and which are user-controlled. Shared status does not confirm administrator ownership, usernames remain untrusted on shared servers, and group names alone do not establish trust.
…, and by whom. pgadmin-org#10703
A password exec command in server mode only received connection details
that whoever edits the server can set, so a user could create their own
server with the same host and username as a shared one, pick the same
command, and be given the shared server's password.
Commands now also receive PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SHARED, PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SERVER_ID,
PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SERVER_OWNER, PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SERVER_OWNER_AUTH_SOURCE and
PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SERVER_GROUP. They are read from the server's own row and
its owner, rather than from the overlay built for a user who does not own a
shared server, so that user cannot change them. The server group is the
owner's, which is the one an OAuth2 server group claim is checked against.
The documentation and the config.py comment say which variables a command
can rely on, and why the group name means nothing without the owner.
Closespgadmin-org#10703
Password-exec commands now receive server-sharing status, server ID, owner identity and authentication source, and server group. The PostgreSQL driver refreshes cached commands when sharing status or server details change. Tests and documentation cover the environment values and trust limits.

Password exec server metadata
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Resolve and export server metadata web/pgadmin/utils/passexec.py, web/pgadmin/utils/tests/test_passexec_*, docs/en_US/server_dialog.rst, web/config.py, web/pgadmin/browser/server_groups/servers/static/js/server.ui.js
build_passexec retrieves server owner and group details and passes them to ServerPasswordExec. The command environment includes the shared flag, server ID, owner identity and authentication source, and server group. Tests and documentation cover these values and shared-server trust limits.
The driver refreshes cached password-exec commands when sharing status or captured owner and group details change. Tests check that a group rename is detected.

Explanation
The title names the main change: server-mode password exec commands now receive whether the server is shared and by whom. The raw summary and objectives confirm the changeset adds PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SHARED, server ID, owner, owner auth source, and owner group environment variables, with matching docs, config comments, and tests. The title also carries an issue reference (#10703), while the PR objectives cite PR #10738; this does not affect relevance.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
[#10703] requests a SERVER_PASSEXEC_COMMANDS value that identifies shared access and/or the group used to grant access. build_passexec now sets PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SHARED, server ID, owner identity, owner auth source, and owner server group. server_passexec_details reads owner and group data by the server row ID, so a non-owner overlay cannot supply lookalike values. The implementation also rebuilds cached commands when owner or group details change. The full claim-group list is not required because the issue describes it as optional. Tests cover shared and lookalike servers.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The changed code stays within [#10703]. passexec.py adds the required environment values and authoritative server-detail lookup. The psycopg3 manager refreshes cached commands before connection restoration when those details change. Configuration comments, UI help, and server-dialog documentation describe the new variables and trust limits. Added tests cover the variables, shared-server behavior, lookalike values, and cache staleness. No unrelated change is established.

Review comments at @docs/en_US/server_dialog.rst:
- Line 371: Update the documentation statement near PGADMIN_PASSEXEC_SHARED to
describe a true value as indicating that the server is shared and owned by
another user, not that an administrator shared it. Preserve the legacy case
where a non-administrator shared the server before the restriction, and retain
the owner-only limits on changing server connection settings.
Review comments at @web/pgadmin/utils/passexec.py:
- Line 409: Update Driver.connection_manager to track the owner’s group name
used to build the current passexec and compare it alongside shared; rebuild
manager.passexec only when the group name changes, so the rebuild clears the
cached password while ordinary requests retain it.

…es, and stop implying that a shared server's owner is always an administrator. pgadmin-org#10703
A cached connection manager kept its password exec command, and so the
server group name and any password chosen for it, until sharing changed.
It is now also rebuilt when the owner or server group it reports no
longer matches the server's row.
Servers shared before sharing was restricted to administrators may be
owned by any user, so the documentation no longer says otherwise.
