    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no

    Sumit Soni discovered that PostgreSQL,an object-relational SQL database,
    could be forced to crash when an internal function was called with
    invalid arguments, resulting in denial of service.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 8.4.16-0squeeze1.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
    version 8.4.16-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your postgresql-8.4 packages.
