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

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

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.

Don't support AVX2 instructions for wc. Since it's possible to enable a
kernel option that causes the kernel to advertise AVX2 as available, but
leads to an illegal instruction if there's an attempt to actually use
AVX2 when old microcode is in use, this isn't reliable. Furthermore, wc
is used by the pkgtools and this sort of failure could lead to corruption
of the filesystem and/or package database. So, we'll disable this to be on
the safe side. Thanks to lancsuk for noticing this issue.

AMD microcode updated to fix a use-after-free in AMD Zen2 processors.
From Tavis Ormandy's annoucement of the issue:
"The practical result here is that you can spy on the registers of other
processes. No system calls or privileges are required.
It works across virtual machines and affects all operating systems.
I have written a poc for this issue that's fast enough to reconstruct
keys and passwords as users log in."

n/dhcpcd-10.0.2-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
n/openssh-9.3p2-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a security issue:
ssh-agent(1) in OpenSSH between and 5.5 and 9.3p1 (inclusive): remote code
execution relating to PKCS#11 providers.
The PKCS#11 support ssh-agent(1) could be abused to achieve remote code
execution via a forwarded agent socket if the following conditions are met:
* Exploitation requires the presence of specific libraries on the victim
system.
* Remote exploitation requires that the agent was forwarded to an
attacker-controlled system.
Exploitation can also be prevented by starting ssh-agent(1) with an empty
PKCS#11/FIDO allowlist (ssh-agent -P '') or by configuring an allowlist that
contains only specific provider libraries.
This vulnerability was discovered and demonstrated to be exploitable by the
Qualys Security Advisory team.
Potentially-incompatible changes:
* ssh-agent(8): the agent will now refuse requests to load PKCS#11 modules
issued by remote clients by default. A flag has been added to restore the
previous behaviour: "-Oallow-remote-pkcs11".

n/samba-4.18.5-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes security issues:
When winbind is used for NTLM authentication, a maliciously crafted request
can trigger an out-of-bounds read in winbind and possibly crash it.
SMB2 packet signing is not enforced if an admin configured
"server signing = required" or for SMB2 connections to Domain Controllers
where SMB2 packet signing is mandatory.
An infinite loop bug in Samba's mdssvc RPC service for Spotlight can be
triggered by an unauthenticated attacker by issuing a malformed RPC request.
Missing type validation in Samba's mdssvc RPC service for Spotlight can be
used by an unauthenticated attacker to trigger a process crash in a shared
RPC mdssvc worker process.
As part of the Spotlight protocol Samba discloses the server-side absolute
path of shares and files and directories in search results.

OK, usually I won't use rc versions even in -current, but in this case I'm
going to. Some time ago my desktop machine with RS880 / Radeon HD 4290
graphics on the motherboard began acting up with the screen going black
for a few seconds before returning. This after an hour or so of uptime,
usually, then becoming more frequent with more uptime. Eventually I'd lose
mouse and/or keyboard too, and have to reboot. Here's a couple of errors
from dmesg:
[ 9942.677675] [drm:r600_ib_test [radeon]] *ERROR* radeon: fence wait
timed out.
[ 9942.677741] [drm:radeon_ib_ring_tests [radeon]] *ERROR* radeon: failed
testing IB on GFX ring (-110).
I also noticed that the backtrace started with ttm_bo_release, and seeing
this in recent kernel patches had been chalking this up to a kernel bug.
I *still* think it could be, and there are a bunch of kernel patches coming
soon to -stable from Alex Deucher that could address the underlying causes
(not for 6.1.39 though, unfortunately). Anyway, I'd recently figured out
that reverting Mesa sufficiently made the issue go away. And now it seems
this 23.2.0 release candidate also fixes the issue.
Yes, I could go search for the commits to cherry-pick, but we'll be moving
to mesa-23.2.0 when it's released, so we might as well start testing now.

Hey folks! It's time to acknowledge another one of those milestones... 30 (!)
years since I made the post linked below announcing Slackware's first stable
release after months of beta testing. Thanks to all of our dedicated
contributors, loyal users, and those who have helped us to keep the lights on
here. It's really been a remarkable journey that I couldn't have anticipated
starting out back in 1993. Cheers! :-)
