You have probably a corrupted toast index on a table. Try to reindex it
and if that doesn't help hunt down the damaged main row and update it's
toasted value with something fresh (there have been enough discussions
about it, you should find how to do that in the mailing list archives.

These discussions will also point out that you probably have some bad
memory and/or other non trustworthy piece of hardware including the
tools you should use to identify the damage.
