    treewide: fix security issues by bumping all packages using libwolfssl · 845d81ca
    Petr Štetiar authored
    
    As wolfSSL is having hard time maintaining ABI compatibility between
    releases, we need to manually force rebuild of packages depending on
    libwolfssl and thus force their upgrade. Otherwise due to the ABI
    handling we would endup with possibly two libwolfssl libraries in the
    system, including the patched libwolfssl-5.5.1, but still have
    vulnerable services running using the vulnerable libwolfssl-5.4.0.
    
    So in order to propagate update of libwolfssl to latest stable release
    done in commit ec8fb542ec3e4 ("wolfssl: fix TLSv1.3 RCE in uhttpd by
    using 5.5.1-stable (CVE-2022-39173)") which fixes several remotely
    exploitable vulnerabilities, we need to bump PKG_RELEASE of all packages
    using wolfSSL library.
    
    Same bump has been done in buildroot in commit f1b7e1434f66 ("treewide:
    fix security issues by bumping all packages using libwolfssl").
