> salts (Josh Kupershmidt)
</P
><P
> Certain invalid salt arguments crashed the server or disclosed a few
bytes of server memory. We have not ruled out the viability of
attacks that arrange for presence of confidential information in the
disclosed bytes, but they seem unlikely. (CVE-2015-5288)

> Fix subtransaction cleanup after a portal (cursor) belonging to an
outer subtransaction fails (Tom Lane, Michael Paquier)
</P
><P
> A function executed in an outer-subtransaction cursor could cause an
assertion failure or crash by referencing a relation created within an
inner subtransaction.

</P

> An oversight in a patch in the most recent minor releases
caused <TT
CLASS="STRUCTNAME"
>pg_trigger_tgrelid_tgname_index</TT
> to be omitted
from the init file. Subsequent sessions detected this, then deemed the
init file to be broken and silently ignored it, resulting in a
significant degradation in session startup time. In addition to fixing
the bug, install some guards so that any similar future mistake will be
more obvious.

</P
><P
> While use of SSL renegotiation is a good idea in theory, we have seen
too many bugs in practice, both in the underlying OpenSSL library and
in our usage of it. Renegotiation will be removed entirely in 9.5 and
later. In the older branches, just change the default value
of <TT

actually doesn't match because of a back reference, could lead to an
infinite loop.

</P
