 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:

 other security fixes for it in various contexts
