New httpd packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to

Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:

+--------------------------+

patches/packages/httpd-2.4.25-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded.

This update fixes the following security issues:

CONTINUATION frames.

* CVE-2016-5387: core: Mitigate [f]cgi "httpoxy" issues.

allocation when the shared memory space is exhausted.

oracle attack.
