[slackware-security]  freetype (SSA:2017-136-01)

New freetype 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/freetype-2.6.3-i586-2_slack14.2.txz:  Rebuilt.
  This update fixes an out-of-bounds write caused by a heap-based buffer
  overflow related to the t1_builder_close_contour function in psaux/psobjs.c.
  For more information, see:
    https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-8287
