[slackware-security]  texlive (SSA:2023-144-01)

New texlive packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to
fix a security issue.


Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/texlive-2023.230322-i586-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update patches a security issue:
  LuaTeX before 1.17.0 allows execution of arbitrary shell commands when
  compiling a TeX file obtained from an untrusted source. This occurs
  because luatex-core.lua lets the original io.popen be accessed. This also
  affects TeX Live before 2023 r66984 and MiKTeX before 23.5.
  Thanks to Johannes Schoepfer.
  For more information, see:

  (* Security fix *)
