As an example: http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/search-results?query=postgresql&search_type=all&cves=on Note that the first handful of CVEs listed there are labeled 'pre-' 9.2.4, or 9.1.9.

I did not find any detailed documentation on patching . Please provide me some links where i can get some note on postgresql patching. Why does postgres documentation does not have patching topic?
