Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in PostgreSQL, which could be exploited by malicious users to cause a denial of service.

The first issue is due to an error when converting certain literals into ANYARRAY, which could be exploited by authenticated attackers to cause a denial of service.

The second flaw is due to an error when handling certain aggregate functions in UPDATE statements, which could be exploited by authenticated attackers to cause a denial of service.

The third vulnerability is due to an error when logging certain V3-protocol execute messages of ROLLBACK or COMMIT statements, which could be exploited by authenticated attackers to cause a denial of service.
