New python3 packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to
fix security issues.

Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/python3-3.9.20-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes security issues:
Bundled libexpat was updated to 2.6.3.
Fix quadratic complexity in parsing "-quoted cookie values with backslashes
by http.cookies.
Fixed various false positives and false negatives in IPv4Address.is_private,
IPv4Address.is_global, IPv6Address.is_private, IPv6Address.is_global.
Fix urllib.parse.urlunparse() and urllib.parse.urlunsplit() for URIs with
path starting with multiple slashes and no authority.
Remove backtracking from tarfile header parsing for hdrcharset, PAX, and
GNU sparse headers.
email.utils.getaddresses() and email.utils.parseaddr() now return ('', '')
2-tuples in more situations where invalid email addresses are encountered
instead of potentially inaccurate values. Add optional strict parameter to
these two functions: use strict=False to get the old behavior, accept
malformed inputs. getattr(email.utils, 'supports_strict_parsing', False) can
be used to check if the strict paramater is available.
Sanitize names in zipfile.Path to avoid infinite loops (gh-122905) without
breaking contents using legitimate characters.
Email headers with embedded newlines are now quoted on output. The generator
will now refuse to serialize (write) headers that are unsafely folded or
delimited; see verify_generated_headers.
