New vim 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/vim-9.0.0270-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
We’re just going to move to vim-9 instead of continuing to backport patches
to the vim-8 branch. Most users will be better served by this.
Fixed use after free and null pointer dereference.
Thanks to marav for the heads-up.
For more information, see:

(* Security fix *)
patches/packages/vim-gvim-9.0.0270-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.

Where to find the new packages:

Thanks to the friendly folks at the OSU Open Source Lab
