Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) for PostgreSQL now supports the latest minor versions 17.3, 16.7, 15.11, 14.16, and 13.19. We recommend that you upgrade to the latest minor versions to fix known security vulnerabilities in prior versions of PostgreSQL, and to benefit from the bug fixes added by the PostgreSQL community. This release also includes updates for PostgreSQL extensions such as pg_active 2.1.4, pg_cron 1.6.5, pg_partman 5.2.4, and others.
You can use automatic minor version upgrades to automatically upgrade your databases to more recent minor versions during scheduled maintenance windows. You can also use Amazon RDS Blue/Green deployments for RDS for PostgreSQL using physical replication for your minor version upgrades. Learn more about upgrading your database instances, including automatic minor version upgrades and Blue/Green Deployments in the Amazon RDS User Guide.
