Fixed bugs and the following security issues:
bpo-36216: Changes urlsplit() to raise ValueError when the URL contains
characters that decompose under IDNA encoding (NFKC-normalization) into
characters that affect how the URL is parsed.
bpo-35746: [CVE-2019-5010] Fix a NULL pointer deref in ssl module. The
cert parser did not handle CRL distribution points with empty DP or URI
correctly. A malicious or buggy certificate can result into segfault.
Vulnerability (TALOS-2018-0758) reported by Colin Read and Nicolas Edet
of Cisco.
bpo-35121: Don't send cookies of domain A without Domain attribute to
domain B when domain A is a suffix match of domain B while using a
cookiejar with http.cookiejar.DefaultCookiePolicy policy.
Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

Fixes security issues:
libgnutls, gnutls tools: Every gnutls_free() will automatically set
the free'd pointer to NULL. This prevents possible use-after-free and
double free issues. Use-after-free will be turned into NULL dereference.
The counter-measure does not extend to applications using gnutls_free().
libgnutls: Fixed a memory corruption (double free) vulnerability in the
certificate verification API. Reported by Tavis Ormandy; addressed with
the change above. [GNUTLS-SA-2019-03-27, #694]
libgnutls: Fixed an invalid pointer access via malformed TLS1.3 async
messages; Found using tlsfuzzer. [GNUTLS-SA-2019-03-27, #704]
libgnutls: enforce key usage limitations on certificates more actively.
Previously we would enforce it for TLS1.2 protocol, now we enforce it
even when TLS1.3 is negotiated, or on client certificates as well. When
an inappropriate for TLS1.3 certificate is seen on the credentials
structure GnuTLS will disable TLS1.3 support for that session (#690).
libgnutls: enforce the equality of the two signature parameters fields
in a certificate. We were already enforcing the signature algorithm,
but there was a bug in parameter checking code.

Applied fixed patch - this has a better chance of working now. I've checked

previous build dumped onto my main system (not even in "make install"),
but not into the package itself. I no longer own an HP printer and will
never buy another one, so if there are any remaining problems please report.

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! :-)
