The lower the number the more severe it is.
Short Description
psql can crash the backend on login
Long Description
On a FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE system, launching /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql and giving
control-d as a password will crash the backend.
Note I only tried this on a localhost connection (Unix sockets)
Sample Code
machine% /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -U validuser
Password: (hit control-d here)

Password:
psql: pqReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.
This probably means the backend terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
machine% /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -U validuser
psql: connectDBStart() -- connect() failed: No such file or directory
Is the postmaster running at 'localhost'
and accepting connections on Unix socket '5432'?
machine% ps auxw|grep 'post[m]aster'
