patches/packages/libarchive-3.7.7-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.

gzip: prevent a hang when processing a malformed gzip inside a gzip.

tar: fix two leaks in tar header parsing.
(* Security fix *)
patches/packages/openssh-9.9p1-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update is primarily to address a regression that prevents using
inetd or xinetd with sshd. Thanks to a_biardi for the bug report.
Future deprecation notice: OpenSSH plans to remove support for the DSA
signature algorithm in early 2025. For now, this package retains DSA
support, but plan accordingly.
Several ELF objects were found to have rpaths pointing into /tmp, a world
writable directory. This could have allowed a local attacker to launch denial
of service attacks or execute arbitrary code when the affected binaries are
run by placing crafted ELF objects in the /tmp rpath location. All rpaths with
an embedded /tmp path have been scrubbed from the binaries, and makepkg has
gained a lint feature to detect these so that they won't creep back in.
extra/llvm-17.0.6-x86_64-2_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt.

patches/packages/cups-filters-1.28.17-x86_64-2_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt.
Mitigate security issue that could lead to a denial of service or
the execution of arbitrary code.
Rebuilt with --with-browseremoteprotocols=none to disable incoming
connections, since this daemon has been shown to be insecure. If you
actually use cups-browsed, be sure to install the new
/etc/cups/cups-browsed.conf.new containing this line:
BrowseRemoteProtocols none

patches/packages/boost-1.78.0-x86_64-3_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt.
Get rid of hardcoded temporary paths in the cmake files.
Since these paths point to a location that an unprivileged user could
create and populate with files that could be picked up during a build,
it's possible this bug could be used for malicious purposes.
Thanks to jmacloue.

patches/packages/openssh-9.8p1-x86_64-3_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt.
As upstream refactors this into smaller binaries, we could easily run into
another update that causes an sshd lockout if the listener process isn't
restarted. So, let's try to prevent that. After the package is upgraded,
we'll use "sshd -t" to make sure that we have a sane configuration, and if
so then we'll restart the listener process automatically.
If you don't like this idea, you may turn it off in /etc/default/sshd.
patches/packages/openssh-9.8p1-x86_64-2_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt.
rc.sshd: also shut down sshd-session processes with "stop" function.
This shuts down connections cleanly instead of them having to time out.

These updates fix regressions with the 5.15.160 packages.
Hopefully we do not get any new ones. :-)
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.
