EDB Postgres Advanced Server 16.9.0 includes the following enhancements and bug fixes:
| Type | Description | Addresses |
|---|---|---|
| Upstream merge | Merged with community PostgreSQL 16.9. This release includes a fix for CVE-2025-4207. See the PostgreSQL 16.9 Release Notes for more information. | |
| Bug fix | Modified SUBSTRB() to accept clipped slices, aligning its behavior with Redwood by allowing incomplete character boundaries and improving compatibility. | #45636 |
| Bug fix | Fixed the alteruser utility to set the encoding correctly to avoid a possible server crash. | |
| Bug fix | Fixed the behavior of edb_dynatune to ensure it functions as expected. | #45385 |
| Bug fix | Fixed the definition of the sys.*_scheduler_jobs views in dbms_scheduler to populate previously missing column values, and bumped the extension version to reflect the change. | #48375 |
| Bug fix | Fixed an issue in dbms_job where jobs with identical start times caused dba_jobs and user_jobs views to return incorrect results by updating the view definitions. Also, bumped the extension version to reflect the change. | #38664 |
| Bug fix | Fixed computation of nullingrels in Redwood-style left joins, which previously caused errors such as wrong varnullingrels (b) (expected (b 10)) for Var 3/2. | #42059 |
