bugs reported over the last three months.

calculations

CVE-2021-32029: Memory disclosure in partitioned-table UPDATE ... RETURNING
Also plenty of bug fixes. See the release note for details.
Changes to the port:
Make sure we use the matching version of llvm. This fixes a problem with the
llvm version string not being monotonically increasing with the version
number. [1]
Better pkg message about checksums for postgresql 12+. [2] [4]
Adjust login class parameter to adhere to the documentation in rc.subr(8) [3]:
The rc.conf parameter for the login class of the postgresql daemon has
changed name from postgresql_class to postgresql_login_class, since
rc.subr(8) states that the parameter should be named ${name}_login_class.
Allow parallel builds. [5]
Correct the directory name for the user postgres in pkg message. [6]

2018-02-08 Security Update Release
==================================
The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all supported
versions of our database system, including 10.2, 9.6.7, 9.5.11, 9.4.16, 9.3.21.
This release fixes two security issues. This release also fixes issues with
VACUUM, GIN indexes, and hash indexes that could lead to data corruption, as
well as fixes for using parallel queries and logical replication.
All users using the affected versions of PostgreSQL should update as soon as
possible. Please see the notes on "Updating" below for any post-update steps
that may be required.
Please note that PostgreSQL changed its versioning scheme with the release of
version 10.0, so updating to version 10.2 from 10.0 or 10.1 is considered a
minor update.
Security Issues

Two security vulnerabilities have been fixed by this release:
* CVE-2018-1052: Fix the processing of partition keys containing multiple

* CVE-2018-1053: Ensure that all temporary files made with "pg_upgrade" are
non-world-readable
Local fixes to the FreeBSD ports
