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! :-)

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! :-)

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/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.

An incomplete access check on dnsHostName allows authenticated but otherwise

The Samba AD DC administration tool, when operating against a remote LDAP
server, will by default send new or reset passwords over a signed-only
connection.
The fix in 4.6.16, 4.7.9, 4.8.4 and 4.9.7 for CVE-2018-10919 Confidential
attribute disclosure via LDAP filters was insufficient and an attacker may
be able to obtain confidential BitLocker recovery keys from a Samba AD DC.
Installations with such secrets in their Samba AD should assume they have
been obtained and need replacing.
