[SECURITY] [DLA-1169-1] postgresql-common security update



Package        : postgresql-common
Version        : 134wheezy6

A security vulnerability has been found in postgresql-common, Debian's
PostgreSQL database cluster management tools.

CVE-2017-8806

    It was discovered that the pg_ctlcluster, pg_createcluster and
    pg_upgradecluster commands handled symbolic links insecurely which
    could result in local denial of service by overwriting arbitrary
    files.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
134wheezy6.

We recommend that you upgrade your postgresql-common packages.
