PostgreSQL security flaw

2013-03-28 23:42:35.17598+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Uh oh: PostgreSQL mailing list - Extra security measures for next week's releases. Git repo frozen so that the committers can get fixes in to the repository without people seeing what the security flaw is.

I use PostgreSQL extensively, but I've always used it locked to localhost on trusted machines, and if I had to get to it from elswhere, via ssh tunnels. It'll be interesting to see what this is.
