Log message:
postgresql: updated to 16.3, 15.7, 14.12, 13.15, 12.19

PostgreSQL 16.3, 15.7, 14.12, 13.15, and 12.19

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all supported \ 
versions of PostgreSQL, including 16.3, 15.7, 14.12, 13.15, and 12.19. This \ 
release fixes one security vulnerability and over 55 bugs reported over the last \ 
several months.

A security vulnerability was found in the system views pg_stats_ext and \ 
pg_stats_ext_exprs, potentially allowing authenticated database users to see \ 
data they don't have sufficient privileges to view. The fix for this \ 
vulnerability only fixes fresh PostgreSQL installations, namely those that are \ 
created with the initdb utility after this fix is applied. If you have a current \ 
PostgreSQL installation and are concerned about this issue, please follow the \ 
instructions in the "Updating" section for remediation steps.

For the full list of changes, please review the release notes.

Security Issues

CVE-2024-0985: PostgreSQL non-owner REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW CONCURRENTLY \ 
executes arbitrary SQL

Bug Fixes and Improvements

This update fixes over 65 bugs that were reported in the last several months. \ 
The issues listed below affect PostgreSQL 16. Some of these issues may also \ 
affect other supported versions of PostgreSQL.

Fix memory leak when performing JIT inlining that could lead to out-of-memory \ 
conditions.
Several query planner fixes.
Align MERGE behavior with UPDATE when updating a partition key column and skip \ 
firing AFTER UPDATE ROW trigger and other post-update actions.
Fix problems with duplicate token names in ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION ... \ 
MAPPING commands.
Fix DROP ROLE with duplicate role names.
Properly lock the associated table during DROP STATISTICS to prevent errors if \ 
ANALYZE is running concurrently.
Fix function volatility checking for GENERATED and DEFAULT expressions.
Ensure collation matches when matching an existing index to a new partitioned index.
Avoid failure if a child index is dropped concurrently with REINDEX INDEX on a \ 
partitioned index.
Fix for locking during cleanup of GIN indexes. For this case, if multiple \ 
processes tried to clean the same GIN index page, there was a chance of index \ 
corruption. If you believe you were affected by this issue, reindex your GIN \ 
indexes after installing this update.
Avoid failure with partitioned SP-GiST indexes.
Several ownership fixes for large objects.
In EXPLAIN (BUFFERS), change name of I/O timing data "shared/local" to \ 
"shared".
Ensure durability of the CREATE DATABASE command if a system crash occurred \ 
during or shortly after execution.
Add more logging messages when starting and ending recovery from a backup.
Revert a change that made the walreceiver process unresponsive to SIGTERM while \ 
waiting for a replication connection to be established.
Several fixes for logical replication.
Fix incompatibility with OpenSSL 3.2.
Fix PL/pgSQL to allow CREATE FUNCTION/CREATE PROCEDURE SQL commands that use \ 
SQL-standard function bodies.
Fix for error handling in libpq pipeline mode.
Ensure initdb always uncomments postgresql.conf entries for the lc_ family of \ 
parameters.
In pg_dump, don't dump RLS policies or security labels for extension member objects.

Log message:
postgresql: updated to 16.1, 15.5, 14.10, 13.13, 12.17, and 11.22

Security Issues

CVE-2023-5868: Memory disclosure in aggregate function calls
CVE-2023-5869: Buffer overrun from integer overflow in array modification
CVE-2023-5870: Role pg_signal_backend can signal certain superuser processes

Bug Fixes and Improvements

This update fixes over 55 bugs that were reported in the last several months. \ 
The issues listed below affect PostgreSQL 16. Some of these issues may also \ 
affect other supported versions of PostgreSQL.

Fix issue where GiST indexes had an incorrect behavior during a "page \ 
split" operation that could lead to incorrect results in subsequent index \ 
searches. Please reindex GiST indexes after installing this update.
Fix issue where B-tree indexes would incorrectly de-duplicate interval columns. \ 
Please reindex any B-tree index that includes an interval column after \ 
installing this update.
Provide more efficient indexing of date, timestamptz, and timestamp values in \ 
BRIN indexes when using a minmax_multi opsclass. While not required, we \ 
recommend reindexing BRIN indexes that include these data types after installing \ 
this update.
Fix for bulk table insertion into partitioned tables.
Fix for hash-partitioned tables with multiple partition keys during step \ 
generation and runtime pruning that could lead to crashes in some cases.
Throw the correct error if pgrowlocks() is applied to a partitioned table

Fix inconsistent rechecking of concurrently-updated rows during MERGE when using \ 
READ COMMITTED mode.

Correctly identify the target table in an inherited UPDATE/DELETE/MERGE even \ 
when the parent table is excluded by constraints.
Fix over-allocation of a constructed tsvector.
Fix ALTER SUBSCRIPTION to apply changes in the run_as_owner option.
Several fixes for COPY FROM,
Several fixes for handling torn reads with pg_control.
Fix "could not find pathkey item to sort" errors occurring while \ 
planning aggregate functions with ORDER BY or DISTINCT options.
When track_io_timing is enabled, include the time taken by relation extension \ 
operations as write time.
Track the dependencies of cached CALL statements, and re-plan them when needed.
Treat out-of-memory failures as FATAL while reading WAL.
Fix pg_dump to dump the new run_as_owner option of subscriptions.
Fix pg_restore so that selective restores will include both table-level and \ 
column-level ACLs for selected tables.
Add logic to pg_upgrade to check for use of obsolete data types abstime, \ 
reltime, and tinterval.
Fix vacuumdb to have multiple -N switches actually exclude tables in multiple \ 
schemas.
amcheck will no longer report interrupted page deletion as corruption.
Fix btree_gin indexes on interval columns to properly return data when using the \ 
< and <= operators.
