Log message:
Changes:
This release primarily fixes issues not successfully fixed in prior releases. It \
should be applied as soon as possible all users of major versions 9.3 and 9.4. \
Other users should apply at the next available downtime.
Crash Recovery Fixes:
Earlier update releases attempted to fix an issue in PostgreSQL 9.3 and 9.4 with \
"multixact wraparound", but failed to account for issues doing \
multixact cleanup during crash recovery. This could cause servers to be unable \
to restart after a crash. As such, all users of 9.3 and 9.4 should apply this \
update as soon as possible.

Log message:
This minor release fixes a data corruption issue with replication and crash \
recovery in version 9.3, as well as several other minor issues in all versions. \
All users of version 9.3 are urged to update their installations at the next \
possible downtime. Users of older versions should update at their convenience.
The data corruption issue in PostgreSQL 9.3 affects binary replication standbys, \
servers being recovered from point-in-time-recovery backup, and standalone \
servers which recover from a system crash. The bug causes unrecoverable index \
corruption during recovery due to incorrect replay of row locking operations. \
This can then cause query results to be inconsistent depending on whether or not \
an index is used, and eventually lead to primary key violations and similar \
issues. For this reason, users are encouraged to replace each of their standby \
databases with a new base backup after applying the update.
Other PostgreSQL 9.3-only fixes in this update include:
Make sure that statistics files for dropped databases get deleted
Allow materialized views to be referenced in UPDATE and DELETE queries
Add read-only data_checksum parameter
Prevent erroneous operator push-down in postgres_fdw
This release resolves some other issues in all versions of PostgreSQL, including:
Fix timing consistency issue with NOTIFY
Allow regular expression execution to be cancelled
Improve performance of index checks for newly added rows
Prevent premature walsender disconnection
Prevent memory errors on newer Windows versions
Update timezone files

In addition to the above, the following issues are fixed in this release:

Get pause_at_recovery_target to pause at correct time

Log message:
The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released a critical update to all \
supported versions of the PostgreSQL database system, which includes minor \
versions 9.3.2, 9.2.6, 9.1.11, 9.0.15, and 8.4.19. This update fixes three \
serious data-loss bugs affecting replication and database maintenance. All users \
are urged to update their installations at the earliest opportunity.
The replication issue affects some users of PostgreSQL binary replication, and \
can cause minor data loss between the master and the standby. While not all \
users are affected, it is difficult to predict when the bug will occur, so we \
urge all users of replication and continuous backup (PITR) to update \
immediately. Additionally, users who had replication running under PostgreSQL \
minor versions 9.3.0, 9.3.1, 9.2.5, 9.1.10, or 9.0.14 should plan to take a \
fresh base backup of each standby after update, in order to ensure no prior data \
corruption already exists.
This release also fixes two timing issues with VACUUM, which can cause old, \
overwritten or deleted rows to re-appear at a later date under some \
circumstances. Users with very high transaction rates, particularly those who \
experience "transaction ID wraparound" every few weeks or less, are \
the most at risk for this issue. Those users should set vacuum_freeze_table_age \
to 0, and run a database-wide VACUUM after the update. The second of the two \
VACUUM issues affects only 9.3, making it expecially important for 9.3 users to \
update.
