Security Fix(es):
bluez: A flaw was found in the HID Profile in BlueZ that opens doors for unauthorized connections, especially by devices like keyboards, to inject keystrokes without user confirmation. BlueZ lacks proper restrictions on non-bonded devices, creating a risk for attackers that are physically close to inject keystrokes and execute arbitrary commands when the device is in a discoverable state.(CVE-2023-45866)
bluez: bugfix
emacs: A flaw was found in Emacs. When Emacs is used as an email client, a preview of a crafted LaTeX document attached to an email can exhaust the disk space or the inodes allocated for the partition where the /tmp directory is located. This issue possibly results in a denial of service.(CVE-2024-30204)
emacs: bugfix
