This update fixes a security issue:
It may have been possible for an attacker within Bluetooth range to inject
keystrokes (and possibly execute commands) while devices were discoverable.
Thanks to marav for the heads-up.

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.

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.

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
have special requirements. But in case anyone finds that behavior useful,
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
