Slackware: 2014-156-01: gnutls Security Update
Summary
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: patches/packages/gnutls-3.1.25-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded. A security issue has been corrected in gnutls. This vulnerability affects the client side of the gnutls library. A server that sends a specially crafted ServerHello could corrupt the memory of a requesting client. This may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. Additional vulnerabilities in the embedded libtasn1 library have also been patched. Thanks to mancha for the backported patches.
