Package : postgresql-8.4 Version : 8.4.22lts5-0+deb6u2 The 8.4.22lts5-0+deb6u1 update failed to build on the i386 architecture because the regression tests were not correctly adapted for changes in lts5. This has now been corrected, updated binaries for i386 and amd64 (which were unaffected) have been published. > Several bugs were discovered in PostgreSQL, a relational database server > system. The 8.4 branch is EOLed upstream, but still present in Debian squeeze. > This new LTS minor version contains the fixes that were applied upstream to the > 9.0.22 version, backported to 8.4.22 which was the last version officially > released by the PostgreSQL developers. This LTS effort for squeeze-lts is a > community project sponsored by credativ GmbH. > > ## Migration to Version 8.4.22lts5 > > A dump/restore is not required for those running 8.4.X. However, if you are > upgrading from a version earlier than 8.4.22, see the relevant release notes. > > ## Security Fixes > > Fix contrib/pgcrypto to detect and report too-short crypt salts (Josh > Kupershmidt) > > Certain invalid salt arguments crashed the server or disclosed a few > bytes of server memory. We have not ruled out the viability of attacks > that arrange for presence of confidential information in the disclosed > bytes, but they seem unlikely.
