Code:

Thu Jan 26 00:34:41 UTC 2023
patches/packages/bind-9.16.37-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes bugs and the following security issues:
  An UPDATE message flood could cause :iscman:`named` to exhaust all
  available memory. This flaw was addressed by adding a new
  :any:`update-quota` option that controls the maximum number of
  outstanding DNS UPDATE messages that :iscman:`named` can hold in a
  queue at any given time (default: 100).
  :iscman:`named` could crash with an assertion failure when an RRSIG
  query was received and :any:`stale-answer-client-timeout` was set to a
  non-zero value. This has been fixed.
  :iscman:`named` running as a resolver with the
  :any:`stale-answer-client-timeout` option set to any value greater
  than ``0`` could crash with an assertion failure, when the
  :any:`recursive-clients` soft quota was reached. This has been fixed.

Thanks for the heads-up drumz.

Installed the Tue Feb 7 20:48:57 UTC 2023 xorg patches from a runlevel 3 session, rebuilt NVidia ( probably unnecessary ) and rebooted.

Everything working fine after starting KDE on my Slackware64 15.0 +MultiLib Laptop.

patches/packages/git-2.35.7-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes security issues:
  Using a specially-crafted repository, Git can be tricked into using
  its local clone optimization even when using a non-local transport.
  Though Git will abort local clones whose source $GIT_DIR/objects
  directory contains symbolic links (c.f., CVE-2022-39253), the objects
  directory itself may still be a symbolic link.
  These two may be combined to include arbitrary files based on known
  paths on the victim's filesystem within the malicious repository's
  working copy, allowing for data exfiltration in a similar manner as
  CVE-2022-39253.
  By feeding a crafted input to "git apply", a path outside the
  working tree can be overwritten as the user who is running "git
  apply".

There is a small typo in the upstream changelog, back in november the kernel was updated to 5.15.80 and it was probably a copy-past-error as it now instead was updated to 5.15.94.

Looks like they backported the modern AMD CPU fix to the 5.15.x kernels. AMD users should see a nice performance increase with 5.15.94 that Pat just released.
