That requires the CVE number to be available at the time of commit. Not sure if it'll always be.

While I think it would be a good idea for someone on -core to actually be responsible for such a list, I can certainly create and maintain the page. With our track record of security issues, it doesn't seem that it should be all that much work... //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
