SUSE-SU-2023:2069-1 Security update for shadow

This update for shadow fixes the following issues: - CVE-2023-29383: Fixed apparent /etc/shadow manipulation via chfn bsc1210507...

In Shadow 4.13 it is possible to inject control characters into fields provided to the SUID program chfn (change finger). Although it is not possible to exploit this directly (e.g. adding a new user fails because \n is in the block list) it is possible to misrepresent the /etc/passwd file when viewed. Use of \r manipulations and Unicode characters to work around blocking of the : character make it possible to give the impression that a new user has been added. In other words an adversary may be able to convince a system administrator to take the system offline (an indirect social-engineered denial of service) by demonstrating that "cat /etc/passwd" shows a rogue user account.
