    Summary: Updated alpine and c-client packages fix security vulnerability

    Details: Alpine before 2.23 silently proceeds to use an insecure connection after a /tls is sent in certain circumstances involving PREAUTH, which is a less secure behavior than the alternative of closing the connection and letting the user decide what they would like to do (CVE-2020-14929).
