[slackware-security]  gd (SSA:2018-108-01)

New gd packages are available for Slackware 14.2 and -current to
fix security issues.


Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
  This update fixes two security issues:
  Double-free in gdImagePngPtr() (denial of service).
  Buffer over-read into uninitialized memory (information leak).
