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

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.

Rebuilt with --with-browseremoteprotocols=none to disable incoming

actually use cups-browsed, be sure to install the new
/etc/cups/cups-browsed.conf.new containing this line:

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.

patches/packages/linux-5.15.161/*: Upgraded.
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.

Subject: [PATCH] Revert "drm/amdgpu: init iommu after amdkfd device init"
This reverts commit 56b522f4668167096a50c39446d6263c96219f5f.
A user reported that this commit breaks the integrated gpu of his
notebook, causing a black screen. He was able to bisect the problematic
commit and verified that by reverting it the notebook works again.
He also confirmed that kernel 6.8.1 also works on his device, so the
upstream commit itself seems to be ok.
An amdgpu developer (Alex Deucher) confirmed that this patch should
have never been ported to 5.15 in the first place, so revert this
commit from the 5.15 stable series.
Thanks to fsLeg.
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.

patches/packages/ntp-4.2.8p18-x86_64-2_slack15.0.txz: Rebuilt.
This is a bugfix release to fix a possible regression. In some cases ntpd
gets an error on mixed ipv4/ipv6 networks, so we'll make it possible to
easily configure ntpd to use ipv4 only or ipv6 only (as well as to change
any other ntpd options).
rc.ntp: properly create the PID file on start.
Add /etc/default/ntp to configure ntpd startup options since some people are
needing to add -4 to avoid an error.

patches/packages/git-2.39.4-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes security issues:
Recursive clones on case-insensitive filesystems that support symbolic
links are susceptible to case confusion that can be exploited to
execute just-cloned code during the clone operation.
Repositories can be configured to execute arbitrary code during local
clones. To address this, the ownership checks introduced in v2.30.3
are now extended to cover cloning local repositories.
Local clones may end up hardlinking files into the target repository's
object database when source and target repository reside on the same
disk. If the source repository is owned by a different user, then
those hardlinked files may be rewritten at any point in time by the
untrusted user.
When cloning a local source repository that contains symlinks via the
filesystem, Git may create hardlinks to arbitrary user-readable files
on the same filesystem as the target repository in the objects/
directory.
It is supposed to be safe to clone untrusted repositories, even those
unpacked from zip archives or tarballs originating from untrusted
sources, but Git can be tricked to run arbitrary code as part of the
clone.

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.

the ctags documentation) in a situation where the current working directory
has contents that depend on untrusted input.
