  <summary>Security update for postgresql18</summary>
  <description>This update for postgresql18 fixes the following issue:

Update to version 18.3 (bsc#1258754).

Regression fixes:

  - the substring() function raises an error "invalid byte sequence for encoding" on non-ASCII text values if the
    source of that value is a database column (caused by CVE-2026-2006 fix).
  - a standby may halt and return an error "could not access status of transaction".
