Comment (by ken@…):
Perhaps we ought to mention part of what it says at
[http://www.postgresql.org/about/news/1506/] :
With this release, we are also alerting users to a known security hole
that allows other users on the same machine to gain access to an operating
system account while it is doing "make check": CVE-2014-0067. "Make check"
is normally part of building PostgreSQL from source code. As it is not
possible to fix this issue without causing significant issues to our
testing infrastructure, a patch will be released separately and publicly.
Until then, users are strongly advised not to run "make check" on machines
where untrusted users have accounts.
