[slackware-security]  patch (SSA:2025-256-01)

New patch packages are available for Slackware 15.0 to fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/patch-2.8-i586-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  We patched CVE-2018-1000156 seven years ago (arguably the most severe of
  these flaws), but several more CVEs were silently fixed when patch-2.8
  was released earlier this year, so let's upgrade.
  Thanks to bigbadaboum for the heads-up.
