Thanks for the report. Texture node is already selected in node editor, so what exactly you're unable to select? Could you expand on it?

This report does not contain all the requested information, which is required for us to investigate the issue.
Please carefully follow the instructions. Be sure to provide a .blend file with exact steps to reproduce the problem.
A guideline for making a good bug report can be found at https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Process/Bug_Reports

It is greyed out in the Texture Slots list (while still selectable and functional for me).
Will check when that changed.

To the user, this looks like a disfunctional thing (usually greying out is used for props having no effect).

The greying out is caused by 8b7cd1ed2a.
Above commit disabled the direct renaming of images in the TEXTURE_UL_texpaintslots UIList (and instead displays the texture slot directly as a prop -- which has its PROP_EDITABLE flag cleared)
(from the commit message):

A limitation of this patch is that is isn't possible anymore to rename images directly from
the selection panel. This is currently allowed in master. But as CustomDataLayers
aren't ID fields and not owned by the material supporting this wouldn't be easy.

To work around the UI confusion (but still keep the non-editable nature of the property), we should just display this as a label.

@NICEUU The image texture is selected, it just doesn't look like it is because it is grey. You can paint your donut.
The Blender developers will have to fix the code so that selected images will no longer be grey, there is nothing you have to do =)

What is wrong with painting white? You are using white as your brush color:
{F13617251 size=full}
To use the "existing" color, click that white rectangle to choose a new color (you can sample from the existing texture there)

Will commit the greying out (which will then close this report).
Feel free to comment again if you still have trouble painting (but the white color painting does not seem to be a bug)
