[slackware-security]  python3 (SSA:2023-258-01)

New python3 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/python3-3.9.18-i586-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes a security issue:
  Fixed an issue where instances of ssl.SSLSocket were vulnerable to a bypass
  of the TLS handshake and included protections (like certificate verification)
  and treating sent unencrypted data as if it were post-handshake TLS encrypted
  data. Security issue reported by Aapo Oksman; patch by Gregory P. Smith.
  For more information, see:
    https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-40217
