I'd move the comma not remove it; and I think "the pg_read_file()" is
pretty bad English too. So perhaps
Note that granting users the EXECUTE privilege on
<function>pg_read_file()</function>, or related functions, allows them the
ability to read any file on the server which the database can read and
that those reads bypass all in-database privilege checks.
