Here are the details from the Slackware 10.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/gzip-1.3.5-i486-1_slack10.2.tgz:
 Upgraded to gzip-1.3.5, and fixed a variety of bugs.
 Some of the bugs have possible security implications if gzip or its tools are
 fed a carefully constructed malicious archive. Most of these issues were
 recently discovered by Tavis Ormandy and the Google Security Team. Thanks
 to them, and also to the ALT and Owl developers for cleaning up the patch.
 For further details about the issues fixed, please see:
