[slackware-security]  openssl (slackware 14.2) (SSA:2019-057-01)

New openssl packages are available for Slackware 14.2 to fix a security issue.


Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/openssl-1.0.2r-i586-1_slack14.2.txz:  Upgraded.
  Go into the error state if a fatal alert is sent or received. If an
  application calls SSL_shutdown after a fatal alert has occured and
  then behaves different based on error codes from that function then
  the application may be vulnerable to a padding oracle.
  For more information, see:
    https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-1559
  (* Security fix *)
patches/packages/openssl-solibs-1.0.2r-i586-1_slack14.2.txz:  Upgraded.
