sendmail through 8.17.2 allows SMTP smuggling in certain configurations.
Remote attackers can use a published exploitation technique to inject e-mail
messages with a spoofed MAIL FROM address, allowing bypass of an SPF
protection mechanism. This occurs because sendmail supports <LF>.<CR><LF>
but some other popular e-mail servers do not. This is resolved in 8.18 and
later versions with 'o' in srv_features.

This update fixes possible denial-of-service security issues:
A file in PKCS12 format can contain certificates and keys and may come from
an untrusted source. The PKCS12 specification allows certain fields to be
NULL, but OpenSSL did not correctly check for this case. A fix has been
applied to prevent a NULL pointer dereference that results in OpenSSL
crashing. If an application processes PKCS12 files from an untrusted source
using the OpenSSL APIs then that application will be vulnerable to this
issue prior to this fix.
OpenSSL APIs that were vulnerable to this are: PKCS12_parse(),
PKCS12_unpack_p7data(), PKCS12_unpack_p7encdata(), PKCS12_unpack_authsafes()
and PKCS12_newpass().
When function EVP_PKEY_public_check() is called on RSA public keys,
a computation is done to confirm that the RSA modulus, n, is composite.
For valid RSA keys, n is a product of two or more large primes and this
computation completes quickly. However, if n is an overly large prime,
then this computation would take a long time.
An application that calls EVP_PKEY_public_check() and supplies an RSA key
obtained from an untrusted source could be vulnerable to a Denial of Service
attack.
The function EVP_PKEY_public_check() is not called from other OpenSSL
functions however it is called from the OpenSSL pkey command line
application. For that reason that application is also vulnerable if used
with the "-pubin" and "-check" options on untrusted data.
To resolve this issue RSA keys larger than OPENSSL_RSA_MAX_MODULUS_BITS will
now fail the check immediately with an RSA_R_MODULUS_TOO_LARGE error reason.
Fix excessive time spent in DH check / generation with large Q parameter
value.
Applications that use the functions DH_generate_key() to generate an
X9.42 DH key may experience long delays. Likewise, applications that use
DH_check_pub_key(), DH_check_pub_key_ex() or EVP_PKEY_public_check()
to check an X9.42 DH key or X9.42 DH parameters may experience long delays.
Where the key or parameters that are being checked have been obtained from
an untrusted source this may lead to a Denial of Service.

Security (inbound SMTP smuggling): with "smtpd_forbid_bare_newline
= normalize" (default "no" for Postfix < 3.9), the Postfix
SMTP server requires the standard End-of-DATA sequence
<CR><LF>.<CR><LF>, and otherwise allows command or message
content lines ending in the non-standard <LF>, processing
them as if the client sent the standard <CR><LF>.
The alternative setting, "smtpd_forbid_bare_newline = reject"
will reject any command or message that contains a bare
<LF>, and is more likely to cause problems with legitimate
clients.
For backwards compatibility, local clients are excluded by
default with "smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions =
$mynetworks".

Security: this release adds support to defend against an email spoofing
attack (SMTP smuggling) on recipients at a Postfix server. Sites
concerned about SMTP smuggling attacks should enable this feature on
Internet-facing Postfix servers. For compatibility with non-standard
clients, Postfix by default excludes clients in mynetworks from this
countermeasure.
The recommended settings are:
# Optionally disconnect remote SMTP clients that send bare newlines,
# but allow local clients with non-standard SMTP implementations
# such as netcat, fax machines, or load balancer health checks.
#
smtpd_forbid_bare_newline = yes
smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions = $mynetworks
The smtpd_forbid_bare_newline feature is disabled by default.

We've gone ahead and moved the 6.6 kernel into the main tree. As previously
mentioned when this branch first appeared in /testing, on the 32-bit side
there are no longer any -smp labeled kernel packages, so if you were using
those previously, you'll need to switch to using to kernel-generic or
kernel-huge kernel, including the changes needed to your bootloader setup to
load this instead of the -smp labeled kernel. Also, if you happen to be using
a first generation Pentium M chip, you will need to append forcepae to your
kernel command-line options. Enjoy! :-)

Hey folks, I'm in need of a bit of assistance here. I've had libxml2 on the
back burner for quite some time now in spite of yet-another variation of
the old "billion laughs" resource exhaustion attack that's been supposedly
fixed. The issue I'm running into with newer versions of libxml2 is that
the rewrite rules for mapping external entities to files on the system no
longer work, and I'm not sure why that is. For a quick demonstration,
upgrade to this libxml2 package and then try to build glib2. You'll see
xsltproc called to generate documentation such as the man pages, but it isn't
able to find the entity locally and fails due to --nonet.
I'll be keeping an eye on LQ if anyone has any hints. Thanks!

From the release announcement:
Pay attention to the following warning:
This version removes a big number of utilities that have suffered from lack
of maintenance over the years and were the source of various reported
security issues. See "Removed functionality" below for the list of removed
utilities. Starting with libtiff v4.6.0, their source code, at this time,
will still be available in the source distribution, but they will no longer
be built by default, and issues related to them will no longer be accepted
in the libtiff bug tracker. The only remaining supported TIFF tools are
tiffinfo, tiffdump, tiffcp, tiffset and tiffsplit.
Shared library .so-version bump.

Do not overwrite gconv-modules from glibc - instead, install it to

If your /usr/lib{,64}/gconv/gconv-modules was overwritten causing character
conversion errors, reinstall the glibc package to fix this.

n/samba-4.19.3-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
This is a security release in order to address the following defect:
An information leak vulnerability was discovered in Samba's LDAP server.
Due to missing access control checks, an authenticated but unprivileged
attacker could discover the names and preserved attributes of deleted objects
in the LDAP store. Upgrading to this package will not prevent this
information leak - if you are using Samba as an Active Directory Domain
Controller, you will need to follow the instructions in the samba.org link
given below.

For more information, see:
https://www.php.net/ChangeLog-8.php#8.2.13
We have fresh 6.6 kernels in /testing! You may notice that on the 32-bit side
we have done away with the -smp labeled kernel packages, but it's actually the
other kernels that were retired -- the non-SMP, non-PAE ones. If you were
previously using kernel-generic-smp or kernel-huge-smp, you'll need to make
some adjustments to your bootloader setup to load kernel-generic or kernel-huge
instead. About the only non-obsolete CPUs that may have an issue with this are
the first generation Pentium M chips, which supported PAE but unfortunately did
not advertise this in the CPU flags. But these will support PAE if the kernel
option "forcepae" is appended at boot time. Enjoy! :-)

The sudoers plugin has been modified to make it more resilient to ROWHAMMER
attacks on authentication and policy matching.
The sudoers plugin now constructs the user time stamp file path name using
the user-ID instead of the user name. This avoids a potential problem with
user names that contain a path separator ('/') being interpreted as part of
the path name.

Don't go automatically chowning files in /var/named, since some users may

you may set NAMED_CHOWN=YES in /etc/default/named to turn it back on.
Unless anyone has a good objection to it, this change is considered pending
for the next BIND upgrades in -stable.

Hey folks, if you've been following LQ you know I've talked before about
dropping the huge kernel and moving the distribution to use only the generic
kernel plus an initrd. After mulling this over for a few months, I think I
was looking at the problem in the wrong way. First of all, it's clear that
some Slackware users have been using the huge kernel all along, without an
initrd, and are (to say the least) unhappy about the prospect of a new
requirement to start using one. I've been recommending the generic kernel for
some time, and a major reason is that we've been using the same set of kernel
modules with two slightly different kernels. Because of this, there have
always been a few (generally seldom used) kernel modules that won't load into
the huge kernel. These are things that aren't built into the huge kernel, but
because of a difference in some kernel module dependency, they won't load.
The conclusion that I've come to here is that rather than drop the huge
kernel, or slap a LOCALVERSION on it and provide a whole duplicate tree of
kernel modules especially for the huge kernel, it would be better to make the
generic kernel more huge, and minimize the differences between the two kernel
configs.
That's what I've done here.
Shown below are the differences between the previous generic kernel config
and the one shipping in this update. You'll notice that most of the popular
filesystems are built in. At this point the main difference it that the huge
kernel has a couple of dozen SCSI drivers built into it. The modules for those
drivers won't load into the huge kernel, but they're fully built in so that
doesn't matter. If you find any other modules that will not load into the huge
kernel, please make a note about it on LQ and I'll see what can be done.
So, tl;dr - what does this change mean?
Unless your root device is on SCSI, if you were able to use the huge kernel
without an initrd previously, you should now be able to use the generic
kernel without an initrd. The kernel is a bit bigger, but we probably have
enough RAM these days that it won't make a difference.
Enjoy! :-)

It's time for KStars in Slackware to be less of a toy and more of a useful
tool. The required dependencies have been added for EKOS, the INDI client
included in KStars, which will allow for computer control of astronomy
devices. Additional deps and drivers may be required, but these are runtime
dependencies. See (for example) gpsd, libdc1394, libftdi1, libindi-libraries,
and libindi-drivers, all of which can be found on slackbuilds.org.
Huge thanks to Edward W. Koenig for the detailed writeup - it was extremely
