[slackware-security] libX11 (SSA:2023-276-01)

New libX11 packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, 15.0,
and -current to fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/libX11-1.8.7-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes security issues:
libX11: out-of-bounds memory access in _XkbReadKeySyms().
libX11: stack exhaustion from infinite recursion in PutSubImage().
libX11: integer overflow in XCreateImage() leading to a heap overflow.
