[slackware-security] cups-filters (SSA:2023-139-01)

New cups-filters 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/cups-filters-1.28.17-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
[PATCH] Merge pull request from GHSA-gpxc-v2m8-fr3x.
With execv() command line arguments are passed as separate strings and
not the full command line in a single string. This prevents arbitrary
command execution by escaping the quoting of the arguments in a job
with forged job title.
Thanks to marav.
