[Announce] Patches for CVE-2024-1086

Hi all!

Just a quick note to ask for testing! We've released patches for CVE-2024-1086, and I'd love to have folks testing them before they hit production (targeting tomorrow). If you've got some systems to test on, please do so and let us know in chat https://chat.almlinux.org if you hit any problems.

Details in this blog post:
