Mageia 2021-0014: alpine and c-client security update
Summary
Alpine before 2.23 silently proceeds to use an insecure connection after a /tls
is sent in certain circumstances involving PREAUTH, which is a less secure
behavior than the alternative of closing the connection and letting the user
decide what they would like to do (CVE-2020-14929).
