Bug 927727 – app-editors/emacs-29.3-r1 stable request

• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ulrich Müller 2024-03-24 16:49:46 UTC]

From etc/NEWS:

   * Changes in Emacs 29.3
   Emacs 29.3 is an emergency bugfix release intended to fix several
   security vulnerabilities described below.

   ** Arbitrary Lisp code is no longer evaluated as part of turning on Org mode.
   This is for security reasons, to avoid evaluating malicious Lisp code.

   ** New buffer-local variable 'untrusted-content'.
   When this is non-nil, Lisp programs should treat buffer contents with
   extra caution.

   ** Gnus now treats inline MIME contents as untrusted.
   To get back previous insecure behavior, 'untrusted-content' should be
   reset to nil in the buffer.

   ** LaTeX preview is now by default disabled for email attachments.
   To get back previous insecure behavior, set the variable
   'org--latex-preview-when-risky' to a non-nil value.

   ** Org mode now considers contents of remote files to be untrusted.
   Remote files are recognized by calling 'file-remote-p'.

Therefore, asking for quick stabilisation.

Thanks in advance.
