An update that solves three vulnerabilities can now be installed.

## Description:

This update for iperf fixes the following issues:

  * update to 3.19.1:
  * CVE-2025-54351: Fixed buffer overflow in net.c (bsc#1247522)
  * CVE-2025-54350: Fixed Base64Decode assertion failure and application exit
    upon a malformed authentication attempt (bsc#1247520)
  * CVE-2025-54349: Fixed off-by-one error and resultant heap-based buffer
    overflow (bsc#1247519)

  * update to 3.19:

  * iperf3 now supports the use of Multi-Path TCP (MPTCPv1) on Linux with the
    use of the `-m` or `--mptcp` flag. (PR #1661)
  * iperf3 now supports a `--cntl-ka` option to enable TCP keepalives on the
    control connection. (#812, #835, PR #1423)
  * iperf3 now supports the `MSG_TRUNC` receive option, specified by the
    `--skip-rx-copy`. This theoretically improves the rated throughput of tests
    at high bitrates by not delivering network payload data to userspace.
    (#1678, PR #1717)
  * A bug that caused the bitrate setting to be ignored when bursts are set, has
    been fixed. (#1773, #1820, PR #1821, PR #1848)
  * The congestion control protocol setting, if used, is now properly reset
    between tests. (PR #1812)
  * iperf3 now exits with a non-error 0 exit code if exiting via a `SIGTERM`,
    `SIGHUP`, or `SIGINT`. (#1009, PR# 1829)
  * The current behavior of iperf3 with respect to the `-n` and `-k` options is
    now documented as correct. (#1768, #1775, #596, PR #1800)
