[slackware-security]  sudo (SSA:2023-311-01)

New sudo packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, 15.0,
and -current to fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/sudo-1.9.15-i586-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  The sudoers plugin has been modified to make it more resilient to ROWHAMMER
  attacks on authentication and policy matching.
  The sudoers plugin now constructs the user time stamp file path name using
  the user-ID instead of the user name. This avoids a potential problem with
  user names that contain a path separator ('/') being interpreted as part of
  the path name.
  For more information, see:
    https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-42465
    https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-42456
  (* Security fix *)
