Slackware: 2015-349-02: libpng Security Update
Summary
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: patches/packages/libpng-1.4.18-x86_64-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded. Fixed incorrect implementation of png_set_PLTE() that uses png_ptr not info_ptr, that left png_set_PLTE() open to the CVE-2015-8126 vulnerability. For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2015-8472 (* Security fix *)
