This update provides minetest 5.6.1, the latest stable release of the open source voxel game. This updates provides a number of feature and bug fix changes compared to the previous version 5.4.0 provided in Mageia 8. See the linked release notes and changelogs for details. The update also improves compatibility with hosted game servers, which typically run and expect the latest stable release. The update also fixes a security vulnerability affecting single player with malicious mods (GHSA-663q-pcjw-27cc) In single player, a mod could set a global setting that controls the Lua script loaded to display the main menu. The script would be loaded as soon as the game session is exited. The Lua environment the menu runs in was not sandboxed and could directly interfere with the user's system. (CVE-2022-35978)
