New curl packages are available for Slackware 12.1, 12.2, 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, and -current to fix a security issue.



Here are the details from the Slackware 14.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/curl-7.29.0-i486-3_slack14.0.txz: Rebuilt.
This fixes a minor security issue where a decode buffer boundary flaw in
libcurl could lead to heap corruption.
