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

Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/mcabber-1.0.5-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a security issue:
An incorrect implementation of XEP-0280: Message Carbons in multiple XMPP
clients allows a remote attacker to impersonate any user, including
contacts, in the vulnerable application's display. This allows for various
kinds of social engineering attacks.

(* Security fix *)
