This update fixes security issues:
gh-98739: Updated bundled libexpat to 2.5.0 to fix CVE-2022-43680
(heap use-after-free).
gh-98433: The IDNA codec decoder used on DNS hostnames by socket or asyncio
related name resolution functions no longer involves a quadratic algorithm
to fix CVE-2022-45061. This prevents a potential CPU denial of service if an
out-of-spec excessive length hostname involving bidirectional characters were
decoded. Some protocols such as urllib http 3xx redirects potentially allow
for an attacker to supply such a name.
gh-100001: python -m http.server no longer allows terminal control characters
sent within a garbage request to be printed to the stderr server log.
gh-87604: Avoid publishing list of active per-interpreter audit hooks via the
gc module.
gh-97514: On Linux the multiprocessing module returns to using filesystem
backed unix domain sockets for communication with the forkserver process
instead of the Linux abstract socket namespace. Only code that chooses to use
the "forkserver" start method is affected. This prevents Linux CVE-2022-42919
(potential privilege escalation) as abstract sockets have no permissions and
could allow any user on the system in the same network namespace (often the
whole system) to inject code into the multiprocessing forkserver process.
Filesystem based socket permissions restrict this to the forkserver process
user as was the default in Python 3.8 and earlier.
gh-98517: Port XKCP's fix for the buffer overflows in SHA-3 to fix
CVE-2022-37454.
gh-68966: The deprecated mailcap module now refuses to inject unsafe text
(filenames, MIME types, parameters) into shell commands to address
CVE-2015-20107. Instead of using such text, it will warn and act as if a
match was not found (or for test commands, as if the test failed).

OK, I know a few people got excited seeing python-2 removed in the previous

python3 package. It's DOA though, and is the final release of the already EOL

Slackware 14.2 x86_64 stable is released!
The long development cycle (the Linux community has lately been living in
"interesting times", as they say) is finally behind us, and we're proud to
announce the release of Slackware 14.2. The new release brings many updates
and modern tools, has switched from udev to eudev (no systemd), and adds
well over a hundred new packages to the system. Thanks to the team, the
upstream developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else
who pitched in to help make this release a reality.
The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.
Have fun! :-)

pitched in to help make this release a reality.

Slackware 14.0 x86_64 stable is released!
We're perfectionists here at Slackware, so this release has been a long
time a-brewing. But we think you'll agree that it was worth the wait.
Slackware 14.0 combines modern components, ease of use, and flexible
configuration... our "KISS" philosophy demands it.
