[slackware-security]  openssl (SSA:2026-168-05)

New openssl packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to
fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/openssl-1.1.1zh-i586-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  Apply patch to fix the following security issues:
  Heap Buffer Over-read in ASN.1 Content Parsing.
  Possible NULL Dereference in Password-Based CMS Decryption.
  Heap Use-After-Free in the PKCS7_verify() Function.
  Possible Heap Buffer Overflow in ASN.1 Multibyte String Conversion.
  Out-of-Bounds Read in CMS Password-Based Decryption.
  These CVEs were fixed by the 1.1.1zh release that is only available to
  subscribers to OpenSSL's premium extended support. The patch was prepared
  by backporting from the OpenSSL-3.0 repo.
  Thanks to Ken Zalewski for the patch!
