n8n 2.44.6
n8n 2.44.6 is a one-fix patch release of the workflow automation platform: the Postgres node no longer overwrites the global pg type parsers that other parts of n8n rely on.
Why it matters
For teams that self-host n8n for business automations and AI agent workflows, this patch removes a side effect where using the Postgres node could change how database values are parsed elsewhere in the same instance.
What's new
- Postgres node: prevents a global overwrite of pg type parsers (#41667).
- Released October 22, 2026 on the 2.44 line, one day after 2.44.5.
- The release notes list this single bug fix and no new features.
