This bug was fixed in the package postgresql-8.3 - 8.3.23-0ubuntu8.04

---------------
postgresql-8.3 (8.3.23-0ubuntu8.04) hardy-security; urgency=low

  * New upstream security/bug fix release: (LP: #1116336)
    - Prevent execution of enum_recv from SQL
      The function was misdeclared, allowing a simple SQL command to crash the
      server. In principle an attacker might be able to use it to examine the
      contents of server memory. Our thanks to Sumit Soni (via Secunia SVCRP)
      for reporting this issue. (CVE-2013-0255)
    - See HISTORY/changelog.gz for details about other changes.
  * 03-gettext-domains.patch: Unfuzz for new version.
