New pcre packages are available for Slackware 14.1 and -current to
fix security issues.

Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:

patches/packages/pcre-8.39-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded.
This release fixes bugs (including a couple of DoS security issues), and
retrofits to PCRE1 some appropriate JIT improvements from PCRE2.
For more information, see:
