Description

The PostgreSQL team just released versions 9.2.4, 9.1.9, 9.0.13 and 8.4.17: http://www.postgresql.org/about/news/1456/

The post important part is fixes to the 9.x series for CVE-2013-1899 which allows DoS, privilege escalation and arbitrary code execution especially of publicly visible PostgreSQL servers: http://www.postgresql.org/support/security/faq/2013-04-04/

8.4 isn't exposed to this specific vulnerability, though 8.4.17 provides other security fixes for it in various contexts

No problem, I was prepared (thanks to the core people having us in the proper mailing list), so I was done, when I saw the ticket!
