+--------------------------+
patches/packages/nghttp2-1.61.0-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes security issues:
nghttp2 library keeps reading the unbounded number of HTTP/2 CONTINUATION
frames even after a stream is reset to keep HPACK context in sync. This
causes excessive CPU usage to decode HPACK stream. nghttp2 v1.61.0 mitigates
this vulnerability by limiting the number of CONTINUATION frames it can
accept after a HEADERS frame.
