+--------------------------+
patches/packages/libgcrypt-1.7.3-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded.
Fix critical security bug in the RNG [CVE-2016-6313]. An attacker who
obtains 580 bytes from the standard RNG can trivially predict the next
20 bytes of output. (This is according to the NEWS file included in the
source. According to the announcement linked below, an attacker who obtains
4640 bits from the RNG can trivially predict the next 160 bits of output.)
Problem detected by Felix Doerre and Vladimir Klebanov, KIT.
