We got an email notification from AWS regarding security updates for RDS instances running PostgreSQL 10 and PostgreSQL 11.
Affected RDS instances in tvlk-prod(Discovery) -
ugcrect-postgres-b1e1415025f568fe
Ugcrect-postgres-6266912824691c25
Risk - RDS Instance might not be available until the upgrade complete. (We expect it to take a couple of minutes)
Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL and Amazon Aurora with PostgreSQL compatibility are based on open source PostgreSQL and provide a managed database service where each database instance runs on its own dedicated EC2 instance. No clients can access these databases other than those explicitly permitted for that instance by the customer.
Action required - Amazon RDS has released new minor versions of PostgreSQL 10.9 and 11.4, which contain updates that address this security issue. Customers with existing PostgreSQL instances using versions 10 and 11 should upgrade to the respective minor versions 10.9 and 11.4.
How and When -
Maintenance window for instances is set at mon:20:
