Explore fresh OpenSSH offerings for Slackware to swiftly address vital security and memory safety concerns.
New openssh packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix security issues

Summary

Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog: patches/packages/openssh-9.3p1-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded. This release contains fixes for a security problem and a memory safety problem. The memory safety problem is not believed to be exploitable, but we report most network-reachable memory faults as security bugs. For more information, see: https://www.openssh.org/txt/release-9.3 (* Security fix *)
