Slackware 1256 Published by

The Slackware Linux Security Team has released updated httpd packages for both the stable 15.0 release and the current development branch to address multiple security flaws in Apache version 2.4.67. These patches fix critical vulnerabilities that could allow attackers to trigger memory disclosures, escalate privileges, or execute arbitrary code through various server modules. Administrators can download the corrected files from official mirrors, verify their integrity using the provided MD5 checksums, and install them with a simple upgradepkg command.
