[slackware-security]  irssi (SSA:2016-265-03)

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


Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/irssi-0.8.20-i586-1_slack14.2.txz:  Upgraded.
  This update fixes two remote crash and heap corruption vulnerabilites
  in Irssi's format parsing code.  Impact:  Remote crash and heap
  corruption.  Remote code execution seems difficult since only Nuls are
  written.  Bugs discovered by, and patches provided by Gabriel Campana
  and Adrien Guinet from Quarkslab.
  For more information, see:
