postgresql-9.1 9.1.20-0ubuntu0.12.04 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

postgresql-9.1 (9.1.20-0ubuntu0.12.04) precise-security; urgency=medium

  * New upstream security/bug fix release: (LP: #1544576)
    - Fix infinite loops and buffer-overrun problems in regular expressions.
      Very large character ranges in bracket expressions could cause infinite
      loops in some cases, and memory overwrites in other cases.
      (CVE-2016-0773)
    - Prevent certain PL/Java parameters from being set by non-superusers.
      This change mitigates a PL/Java security bug (CVE-2016-0766), which was
      fixed in PL/Java by marking these parameters as superuser-only. To fix
      the security hazard for sites that update PostgreSQL more frequently
      than PL/Java, make the core code aware of them also.
    - See release notes for details about other fixes.

postgresql-9.1: object-relational SQL database, version 9.1 server

 PostgreSQL is a fully featured object-relational database management
 system. It supports a large part of the SQL standard and is designed
 to be extensible by users in many aspects. Some of the features are:
 ACID transactions, foreign keys, views, sequences, subqueries,
 triggers, user-defined types and functions, outer joins, multiversion
 concurrency control. Graphical user interfaces and bindings for many
 programming languages are available as well.
 .
 This package provides the database server for PostgreSQL 9.1. Servers
 for other major release versions can be installed simultaneously and
 are coordinated by the postgresql-common package. A package providing
 ident-server is needed if you want to authenticate remote connections
 with identd.

                   its use:
                   autoinc - A function for implementing AUTOINCREMENT/

                                feature that was removed in 6.3.
