[slackware-security]  cups (SSA:2023-153-01)

New cups packages are available for Slackware 14.2, 15.0, and -current to
fix a security issue.


Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/cups-2.4.3-i586-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
  Fixed a heap buffer overflow in _cups_strlcpy(), when the configuration file
  cupsd.conf sets the value of loglevel to DEBUG, that could allow a remote
  attacker to launch a denial of service (DoS) attack, or possibly execute
  arbirary code.
  For more information, see:
    https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-32324
  (* Security fix *)
