Slackware64-15.0 ChangeLog (2021-02-18)

  • xap/mozilla-firefox-78.7.1esr-x86_64-1.txz
    It looks like rebuilding Firefox with Rust 1.50.0 causes it to crash on
    HTML5 streams, so let's drop back to this build. 78.8.0 is coming soon
    and hopefully it'll fix this.

    This update fixes a security issue:
    When tkey-gssapi-keytab or tkey-gssapi-credential was configured, a
    specially crafted GSS-TSIG query could cause a buffer overflow in the
    ISC implementation of SPNEGO (a protocol enabling negotiation of the
    security mechanism to use for GSSAPI authentication). This flaw could
    be exploited to crash named. Theoretically, it also enabled remote code
    execution, but achieving the latter is very difficult in real-world
    conditions.

  • kernels/*
  • a/pkgtools-15.0-noarch-37.txz
    installpkg: in –terse mode, fix formatting for the uncommon situation
    where numfmt produces a 5 character output e.g. 1000K.
    Thanks to Karl Magnus Kolstø.

    The dotlock utility doesn't work with glibc-2.33 (another case where changes
    to sandboxed functions are needed), but we really don't need it anyway so
    just rebuild without it. Thanks to Paulo2.
