PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system (DBMS).
Security Fix(es):
Note: This patch drops the script privileges from root to the postgres user. Therefore, we dropped the --new-systemd-unit option for security reasons. Please use the root-only script postgresql-new-systemd-unit.
