[slackware-security]  boost (SSA:2024-270-01)

New boost 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/boost-1.78.0-i586-3_slack15.0.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Get rid of hardcoded temporary paths in the cmake files.
  Since these paths point to a location that an unprivileged user could
  create and populate with files that could be picked up during a build,
  it's possible this bug could be used for malicious purposes.
  Thanks to jmacloue.
  (* Security fix *)
