patches/packages/aaa_base-15.0-x86_64-4_slack15.0.txz:  Rebuilt.
  If root's mailbox did not already exist, it would be created with insecure
  permissions leading to possible local information disclosure. This update
  ensures that a new mailbox will be created with proper permissions and
  ownership, and corrects the permissions on an existing mailbox if they are
  found to be incorrect. Thanks to Martin for the bug report.
  (* Security fix *)
patches/packages/util-linux-2.37.4-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This release fixes a security issue in chsh(1) and chfn(8):
  By default, these utilities had been linked with libreadline, which allows
  the INPUTRC environment variable to be abused to produce an error message
  containing data from an arbitrary file. So, don't link these utilities with
  libreadline as it does not use secure_getenv() (or a similar concept), or
  sanitize the config file path to avoid vulnerabilities that could occur in
  set-user-ID or set-group-ID programs.

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.
