Getting frequent crashes in my postgres 9.5 and 12 databases

I am getting frequent crashes in my postgres 9.5 and 12 databases . Cannot figure out what might be the reason for this. Can someone guide me to the right direction on what config or linux setting to look for.

The crashes usually occur once in 2 days.
