<p><a href="https://aws.amazon.com/rds/aurora/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL-Compatible Edition</a> now supports PostgreSQL versions 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19, and 14.24, which include bug fixes from the PostgreSQL community and Aurora-specific enhancements. We recommend upgrading to the latest minor versions to benefit from these improvements and address Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), as detailed in the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraPostgreSQLReleaseNotes/AuroraPostgreSQL.Updates.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">release notes</a>. <br> <br> You can upgrade your databases during scheduled maintenance windows using automatic minor version upgrades. To simplify operations at scale, enable automatic minor version upgrades and use the AWS Organizations <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/Aurora.Maintenance.AMVU.UpgradeRollout.html" target="_blank">Upgrade Rollout Policy</a> to orchestrate multiple upgrades in phases, validating on lower-priority environments before upgrading your most critical ones.
