NOTE: In Slackware 11.0 and earlier, the file utility was part
of the required 'bin' package, so this patch is needed even if
your machine does not have a 'file' package installed (which,
if you're not running Slackware -current, it probably does not).

More details about this issue may be found in the Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database:

Here are the details from the Slackware 11.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/file-4.20-i486-1_slack11.0.tgz:
 Upgraded to file-4.20.
 This fixes a heap overflow that could allow code to be executed as the
 user running file (note that there are many scenarios where file might be
 used automatically, such as in virus scanners or spam filters).
 For more information, see:
