[slackware-security] vim (SSA:2023-177-01)

New vim 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/vim-9.0.1667-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This fixes a rare divide-by-zero bug that could cause vim to crash. In an
interactive program such as vim, I can't really see this qualifying as a
security issue, but since it was brought up as such on LQ we'll just go
along with it this time. :)
Thanks to marav for the heads-up.
