[slackware-security]  git (SSA:2016-078-01)

New git packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1,
and -current to fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/git-2.7.4-i486-1_slack14.1.txz:  Upgraded.
  NOTE:  Issuing this patch again since the bug reporter listed the
  wrong git version (2.7.1) as fixed.  The vulnerability was actually
  patched in git-2.7.4.
  Fixed buffer overflows allowing server and client side remote code
  execution in all git versions before 2.7.4.
  For more information, see:
    http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q1/645
    http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-2315
    http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-2324
  (* Security fix *)
