[slackware-security] httpd

New httpd packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1,
14.2, and -current to fix a security issue.

Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:

patches/packages/httpd-2.4.27-i586-2_slack14.2.txz: Rebuilt.
This update patches a security issue (“Optionsbleed”) with the OPTIONS http
method which may leak arbitrary pieces of memory to a potential attacker.
Thanks to Hanno Bo:ck.
