[slackware-security] patch (SSA:2015-047-01)
New patch packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1,
and -current to fix a security issue.
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/patch-2.7.4-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded.
Patch no longer follows symbolic links to input and output files. This
ensures that symbolic links created by git-style patches cannot cause
patch to write outside the working directory.
For more information, see:

(* Security fix *)
