SUPABASE FIXES CRITICAL PG_NET WORKER CRASH LOOP BLOCKING POSTGRES DEPLOYMENTS

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Supabase

pg_net background worker crashes once per second when a net schema exists without the extension installed, halting database operations until patched.

The pg_net team shipped an emergency fix [1] addressing a catastrophic crash loop that triggers whenever another extension (like pgsql-http) claims a net schema before pg_net installs. This is production-critical for anyone running multiple extensions on older Postgres versions. The same team also resolved macOS build failures [3] on Postgres 12-15, unblocking local development for anyone testing against legacy databases. On the docs front, Supabase clarified a high-impact misconception [2]: creating publishable and secret API keys does not revoke legacy anon and service_role keys. This ships alongside a fix [4] for an empty field bug in the log-drains config widget. The CLI landed routine dependency updates [5] and bumped golangci-lint to 9.3.0 [6] for improved linting coverage.
