[slackware-security]  rxvt-unicode (SSA:2023-003-02)

New rxvt-unicode 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/rxvt-unicode-9.26-i586-3_slack15.0.txz:  Rebuilt.
  When the "background" extension was loaded, an attacker able to control the
  data written to the terminal would be able to execute arbitrary code as the
  terminal's user. Thanks to David Leadbeater and Ben Collver.
