The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all supported versions of our database system, including 9.5.2, 9.4.7, 9.3.12, 9.2.16, and 9.1.21. This release fixes two security issues and one index corruption issue in version 9.5. It also contains a variety of bug fixes for earlier versions. Users of PostgreSQL 9.5.0 or 9.5.1 should update as soon as possible. This release closes security hole CVE-2016-2193, where a query plan might get reused for more than one ROLE in the same session. This could cause the wrong set of Row Level Security (RLS) policies to be used for the query. The update also fixes CVE-2016-3065, a server crash bug triggered by using pageinspect with BRIN index pages. Since an attacker might be able to expose a few bytes of server memory, this crash is being treated as a security issue.

Changes: This update fixes CVE-2014-0060, in which PostgreSQL did not properly enforce the WITH ADMIN OPTION permission for ROLE management. This update also fixes some issues which affect binary replication and row locking, and can cause recoverable data corruption in some cases. In addition to the above, the following issues are fixed in this release: Fix WAL logging of visibility map change Make sure that GIN indexes log all insertions Get pause_at_recovery_target to pause at correct time Ensure walreceiver sends hot-standby feedback messages on time Prevent timeout interrupts from taking control away from mainline code Eliminate several race conditions Fix some broken HINTs in error messages Prevent server lockup on SSL connection loss Fix two Unicode handling issues Prevent crash on certain subselect syntax Prevent crash on select from zero column table Fix two bugs with LATERAL Fix issue with UNION ALL, partitioning, and updates Ensure that ANALYZE understands domains over ranges Eliminate permissions check when using default tablespace Fix memory leakage in JSON functions Allow extensions with event triggers Distinguish numbers correctly in JSON output Fix permissions for pg_start_backup() and pg_stop_backup() Accept SHIFT_JIS as locale name Fix .* expansion for SQL function variables Prevent infinite loop on some COPY connection failures Several fixes for client issues on Windows Enable building PostgreSQL with Visual Studio 2013 Update time zone files for recent changes

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released a security update to all current versions of the PostgreSQL database system, including versions 9.2.3, 9.1.8, 9.0.12, 8.4.16, and 8.3.23. This update fixes a denial-of-service (DOS) vulnerability. All users should update their PostgreSQL installations as soon as possible. The security issue fixed in this release, CVE-2013-0255, allows a previously authenticated user to crash the server by calling an internal function with invalid arguments. This issue was discovered by independent security researcher Sumit Soni this week and reported via Secunia SVCRP, and we are grateful for their efforts in making PostgreSQL more secure. Today's update also fixes a performance regression which caused a decrease in throughput when using dynamic queries in stored procedures in version 9.2. Applications which use PL/pgSQL's EXECUTE are strongly affected by this regression and should be updated. Additionally, we have fixed intermittent crashes caused by CREATE/DROP INDEX CONCURRENTLY, and multiple minor issues with replication. This release is expected to be the final update for version 8.3, which is now End-of-Life (EOL). Users of version 8.3 should plan to upgrade to a later version of PostgreSQL immediately. For more information, see our Versioning Policy. This update release also contains fixes for many minor issues discovered and patched by the PostgreSQL community in the last two months, including: * Prevent unnecessary table scans during vacuuming * Prevent spurious cached plan error in PL/pgSQL * Allow sub-SELECTs to be subscripted * Prevent DROP OWNED from dropping databases or tablespaces * Make ECPG use translated messages * Allow PL/Python to use multi-table trigger functions (again) in 9.1 and 9.2 * Fix several activity log management issues on Windows * Prevent autovacuum file truncation from being cancelled by deadlock_timeout * Make extensions build with the .exe suffix automatically on Windows * Fix concurrency issues with CREATE/DROP DATABASE * Reject out-of-range values in to_date() conversion function * Revert cost estimation for large indexes back to pre-9.2 behavior * Make pg_basebackup tolerate timeline switches * Cleanup leftover temp table entries during crash recovery * Prevent infinite loop when COPY inserts a large tuple into a table with a large fillfactor * Prevent integer overflow in dynahash creation * Make pg_upgrade work with INVALID indexes * Fix bugs in TYPE privileges * Allow Contrib installchecks to run in their own databases * Many documentation updates * Add new timezone "FET".

databases/postgresql91(-client): Fix build for gcc46 and gcc47 Postgresql91 uses non-constant array sizes in record definitions which gcc enforces starting with 4.6. These index sizes are defined as macros using functions such as offsetof. These patches introduce enums where the macros become constant expressions which gcc 4.6+ will accept. GCC 4.7 also introduces the unused-but-set-variable warning which is popping up all over the place in pgsql91, so silence these warnings - they are harmless and get optimized out anyway. No revbump because functionality won't change on binaries generated with gcc4.5 and below.

Version 9.1 delivers several features which users have been requesting for years, removing roadblocks to deploying new or ported applications on PostgreSQL. These include: * Synchronous Replication: enable high-availability with consistency across multiple servers * Per-Column Collations: support linguistically-correct sorting per database, table or column. * Unlogged Tables: greatly improves performance for ephemeral data Our community of contributors innovates with cutting-edge features. Version 9.1 includes several which are new to the database industry, such as: * K-Nearest-Neighbor Indexing: index on "distance" for faster location and text search queries * Serializable Snapshot Isolation: keeps concurrent transactions consistent without blocking, using "true serializability" * Writeable Common Table Expressions: execute complex multi-stage data updates in a single query * Security-Enhanced Postgres: deploy military-grade security and Mandatory Access Control
