patches/packages/kernel-firmware-20230724_59fbffa-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded.
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."

patches/packages/openssh-9.3p2-x86_64-1_slack15.0.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".

patches/packages/vim-9.0.1667-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This fixes a rare divide-by-zero bug that could cause vim to crash. In an
interactive program such as vim, I can't really see this qualifying as a
security issue, but since it was brought up as such on LQ we'll just go
along with it this time. :)
Thanks to marav for the heads-up.

patches/packages/linux-5.15.117/*: Upgraded.
We're going to back up one version to avoid an amdgpu regression in 5.15.118.
If you're already using 5.15.118 without issues, feel free to stick with it.
Be sure to upgrade your initrd after upgrading the kernel packages.
If you use lilo to boot your machine, be sure lilo.conf points to the correct
kernel and initrd and run lilo as root to update the bootloader.
If you use elilo to boot your machine, you should run eliloconfig to copy the
kernel and initrd to the EFI System Partition.

LuaTeX before 1.17.0 allows execution of arbitrary shell commands when
compiling a TeX file obtained from an untrusted source. This occurs
because luatex-core.lua lets the original io.popen be accessed. This also
affects TeX Live before 2023 r66984 and MiKTeX before 23.5.

[PATCH] Merge pull request from GHSA-gpxc-v2m8-fr3x.
With execv() command line arguments are passed as separate strings and
not the full command line in a single string. This prevents arbitrary

patches/packages/git-2.35.8-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes security issues:
By feeding specially crafted input to `git apply --reject`, a
path outside the working tree can be overwritten with partially
controlled contents (corresponding to the rejected hunk(s) from
the given patch).
When Git is compiled with runtime prefix support and runs without
translated messages, it still used the gettext machinery to
display messages, which subsequently potentially looked for
translated messages in unexpected places. This allowed for
malicious placement of crafted messages.
When renaming or deleting a section from a configuration file,
certain malicious configuration values may be misinterpreted as
the beginning of a new configuration section, leading to arbitrary
configuration injection.

corruption issues are nonetheless very serious, so an update to this version
