Andres Freund found an issue in the PostgreSQL database system where an uncontrolled search path could allow users to run arbitrary SQL functions with elevated priviledges when a superuser runs certain `CREATE EXTENSION' statements.



For Debian 8 jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 9.4.26-0+deb8u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your postgresql-9.4 packages.
