[slackware-security]  libtasn1 (SSA:2014-156-02)

New libtasn1 packages are available for Slackware 14.0, 14.1, and -current to
fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/libtasn1-3.6-i486-1_slack14.1.txz:  Upgraded.
  Multiple security issues have been corrected in the libtasn1 library.
  These errors allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service, or
  possibly to execute arbitrary code.
