patches/packages/less-653-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update patches a security issue:
less through 653 allows OS command execution via a newline character in the
name of a file, because quoting is mishandled in filename.c. Exploitation
typically requires use with attacker-controlled file names, such as the files
extracted from an untrusted archive. Exploitation also requires the LESSOPEN
environment variable, but this is set by default in many common cases.

(* Security fix *)
patches/packages/coreutils-9.5-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
chmod -R now avoids a race where an attacker may replace a traversed file
with a symlink, causing chmod to operate on an unintended file.
[This bug was present in "the beginning".]
split --line-bytes with a mixture of very long and short lines no longer
overwrites the heap.

patches/packages/emacs-29.3-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
GNU Emacs through 28.2 allows attackers to execute commands via shell
metacharacters in the name of a source-code file, because lib-src/etags.c
uses the system C library function in its implementation of the ctags
program. For example, a victim may use the "ctags *" command (suggested in
the ctags documentation) in a situation where the current working directory
has contents that depend on untrusted input.

patches/packages/wpa_supplicant-2.10-x86_64-2_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt.
Patched the implementation of PEAP in wpa_supplicant to prevent an
authentication bypass. For a successful attack, wpa_supplicant must be
configured to not verify the network's TLS certificate during Phase 1
authentication, and an eap_peap_decrypt vulnerability can then be abused
to skip Phase 2 authentication. The attack vector is sending an EAP-TLV
Success packet instead of starting Phase 2. This allows an adversary to
impersonate Enterprise Wi-Fi networks.

patches/packages/openjpeg-2.5.1-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
Fixed a heap-based buffer overflow in openjpeg in color.c:379:42 in

this to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the application
compiled against openjpeg.

patches/packages/postfix-3.6.13-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
Security: this release adds support to defend against an email spoofing
attack (SMTP smuggling) on recipients at a Postfix server. Sites
concerned about SMTP smuggling attacks should enable this feature on
Internet-facing Postfix servers. For compatibility with non-standard
clients, Postfix by default excludes clients in mynetworks from this
countermeasure.
The recommended settings are:
# Optionally disconnect remote SMTP clients that send bare newlines,
# but allow local clients with non-standard SMTP implementations
# such as netcat, fax machines, or load balancer health checks.
#
smtpd_forbid_bare_newline = yes
smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions = $mynetworks
The smtpd_forbid_bare_newline feature is disabled by default.
