3 Febbraio 2022 - Slackware 15.0
Oggi (2 febbraio alle 22:22 orario UTC) è stata finalmente rilasciata la Slackware 15.0. Vi aspettiamo nel forum per commentare. Happy fun :)
13 Gennaio 2022 - Slackware 15 RC3
Siamo arrivati alla terza, e a meno di sorprese, l'ultima Release Candidate di Slackware 15. Da ora in poi ci saranno modifiche solo in caso di problemi seri, ma tutto lascia supporre che il 17 gennaio, come anticipato da Pat su LinuxQuestions, esca la tanto sospirata versione 15. Ti aspettiamo nel forum per parlarne.
16 Agosto 2021 - Slackware 15 RC1
È uscita stanotte la prima Release Candidate di Slackware 15. Come ha scritto Pat si tratta di un "congelamento", a meno di bugfix. Questo significa che la 15.0 sarà rilasciata con i software nella versione presente in questa RC1, a meno appunto di bug trovati, o aggiornamenti di sicurezza.
15 Aprile 2021 - Slackware 15 beta
Qualche giorno fa Pat ha rilasciato un corposo aggiornamento definendolo beta. La data dell'uscita di Slackware 15 si fa sempre più vicina.

 patches/packages/openssl-1.1.1zd-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
 Apply patch to fix a moderate severity security issue:
 Fix incorrect check of unwrapped key size in kek_unwrap_key()
 The check is off by 8 bytes so it is possible to overread by up to 8 bytes
 and overwrite up to 4 bytes.
 Although the consequences of a successful exploit of this vulnerability
 could be severe, the probability that the attacker would be able to perform
 it is low. Besides, password based (PWRI) encryption support in CMS
 messages is very rarely used.
 This CVE was fixed by the 1.1.1zd release that is only available to
 subscribers to OpenSSL's premium extended support. The patch was prepared
 by backporting from the OpenSSL-3.0 repo.
 Thanks to Ken Zalewski for the patch!
