   An update that fixes four vulnerabilities is now available.

Description:

   postgresql93 was updated to version 9.3.6 to fix four security issues.

   These security issues were fixed:
   - CVE-2015-0241: Fix buffer overruns in to_char() (bnc#916953).
   - CVE-2015-0243: Fix buffer overruns in contrib/pgcrypto (bnc#916953).
   - CVE-2015-0244: Fix possible loss of frontend/backend protocol
     synchronization after an error (bnc#916953).
   - CVE-2014-8161: Fix information leak via constraint-violation error
     messages (bnc#916953).

   This non-security issue was fixed:
   - Move the server socket from /tmp to /var/run to avoid problems with
     clients that use PrivateTmp (bnc#888564).
