An update that solves one vulnerability and has four fixes can now be installed.

## Description:

This update for himmelblau fixes the following issues:

Update to version 2.3.14+git0.e23b4c54.

Security issues fixed:

  * CVE-2026-45784: incorrect sizing of output buffers in
    `CipherCtxRef::cipher_update_inplace` when used with AES key-wrap-with-
    padding ciphers can lead to attacker-controlled heap corruption
    (bsc#1270985).
  * Arbitrary HTTP or HTTPS URLs classified as Office documents based on an
    attacker-controlled file query parameters are forwarded to Electron
    applications and allow for code execution through Electron (bsc#1273910).
  * Directory-provided RFC2307 user identifiers accepted without exclusion of
    systemd's dynamic-user range allows for daemon impersonation and command
    execution through the task helper (bsc#1273911).
  * Daemon acts on Hello PIN enrollment requests whose identity claims it never
    cryptographically verifies and allows for local authentication bypass
    (bsc#1273912).

Other updates and bugfixes:

  * Version 2.3.14+git0.e23b4c54:
  * fix(`nss`): avoid locked shadow entries
  * fix(`deps`): update libhimmelblau lockfile
  * fix(`pam`): make account denials terminal
  * `debian`: make the `pam_allow_groups` denial terminal in the account phase
  * Version 2.3.13:
  * Update `cargo vet` audits for backport
  * Fix `cargo-fuzz` install in fuzz CI
  * `cargo vet`
  * Update `ldap3_proto` to 0.7.1
  * Update `openssl`
  * Version 2.3.12:
  * Remove invalid `himmelblau.conf` example info
  * Fix SSHd configuration load order on Fedora/RHEL systems
  * `himmelblau-init-hsm-pin`: don't bind the `hsm-pin` to PCR7
  * `qr-greeter`: support GNOME Shell 50
  * Update `libhimmelblau` to latest version
