The PostgreSQL Global Development Group today released security updates for all active branches of the PostgreSQL object-relational database system, including versions 9.0.1, 8.4.5, 8.3.12, 8.2.18, 8.1.22, 8.0.26 and 7.4.30. This is the final update for PostgreSQL versions 7.4 and 8.0.
This update contains a security patch that prevents unauthorized privilege escalation by modifying "trusted" procedural language functions, as well as multiple fixes for minor uptime, data integrity and error handling issues.
Users of PL/perl and PL/tcl procedural languages and SECURITY DEFINER should update their installations immediately. All other database administrators are urged to update your version of PostgreSQL at the next scheduled downtime.
Minor releases 7.4.30 and 8.0.26 are the final releases for PostgreSQL 7.4 and 8.0 as both versions are no longer supported. The PostgreSQL community will also stop releasing updates for version 8.1 later this year. Users are encouraged to upgrade to a newer version as soon as possible. See our release support policy:
