Archlinux published a security issue with the package slock before version 1.4-2.

It is vulnerable to access restriction bypass.


Mageia 5 and Cauldron are concerned.

The upstream 1.4 needs both patches :

Assigning to all packagers collectively, since there is no registered maintainer for this package.
