"Several vulnerabilities have been found in PostgreSQL-9.4, a SQL
database system.
- CVE-2015-3165 (Remote crash)
SSL clients disconnecting just before the authentication
timeout expires can cause the server to crash.
- CVE-2015-3166 (Information exposure)
The replacement implementation of snprintf() failed to
check for errors reported by the underlying system
library calls; the main case that might be missed is
out-of-memory situations. In the worst case this might
lead to information exposure.
- CVE-2015-3167 (Possible side-channel key exposure)
In contrib/pgcrypto, some cases of decryption with an
incorrect key could report other error message texts.
Fix by using a one-size-fits-all message."
