Slackware 15.0: Urgent OpenSSL Security Patch Released on 2023-09-02

Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog: patches/packages/bind-9.16.27-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded. Sorry folks, I had not meant to bump BIND to the newer branch. I've moved the other packages into /testing. Thanks to Nobby6 for pointing this out. This update fixes bugs and the following security issues: A synchronous call to closehandle_cb() caused isc__nm_process_sock_buffer() to be called recursively, which in turn left TCP connections hanging in the CLOSE_WAIT state blocking indefinitely when out-of-order processing was disabled. The rules for acceptance of records into the cache have been tightened to prevent the possibility of poisoning if forwarders send records outside the configured bailiwick.
