Fri Mar 24 19:42:46 UTC 2023 patches/packages/glibc-zoneinfo-2023b-noarch-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded. This package provides the latest timezone updates. patches/packages/tar-1.34-x86_64-2_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt. GNU Tar through 1.34 has a one-byte out-of-bounds read that results in use of uninitialized memory for a conditional jump. Exploitation to change the flow of control has not been demonstrated. The issue occurs in from_header in list.c via a V7 archive in which mtime has approximately 11 whitespace characters. Thanks to marav for the heads-up.
