What is Pgpool-II?

Pgpool-II is a tool to add useful features to PostgreSQL, including:

IBM COBOL for Linux on x86 1.2 integrates with PostgreSQL through SQL statements embedded in COBOL programs that enable you to retrieve, update, insert, and delete data from a PostgreSQL database. This integration provides a PostgreSQL coprocessor instead of a preprocessor, which means that the compiler translates the EXEC SQL statements into COBOL statements during the compilation process itself, rather than during a separate step before compilation. The COBOL for Linux coprocessor for PostgreSQL is based on the PostgreSQL ECPG preprocessor, modified to support COBOL instead of C. The coprocessor is integrated into the COBOL compiler. When a COBOL program with embedded SQL statements runs, it uses the same library that the ECPG preprocessor uses to run a C program. For more information about integration with PostgreSQL, see Programming for a PostgreSQL environment

Release Date: April 17, 2025

PgBouncer 1.24.1 has been released. This release fixes CVE-2025-2291, which could allow an attacker to bypass Postgres its password expiry. Such a password expiry would have been set up in Postgres using the VALID UNTIL clause. This is a security issue that affects all versions of PgBouncer. If you use both VALID UNTIL and auth_user then you should upgrade, or change the auth_query in your config file to the new auth_query that is used by default in this release. If you are using a custom auth_query then you should update it be similar to the new default auth_query in this release.

The Pigsty project has released v3.4, delivering major enhancements for PostgreSQL users who want flexibility, observability, and simplicity in managing self-hosted PG RDS.
