CentOS Errata and Security Advisory CESA-2015:2081

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
(DBMS).

disclose a limited amount of the server memory. (CVE-2015-5288)

All PostgreSQL users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. If the postgresql
service is running, it will be automatically restarted after installing
this update.
