MDVSA-2015:041: cabextract

Updated cabextract packages fix security vulnerability:

Libmspack, a library to provide compression and decompression of
some file formats used by Microsoft, is embedded in cabextract. A
specially crafted cab file can cause cabextract to hang forever. If
cabextract is exposed to any remotely-controlled user input, this
issue can cause a denial-of-service (CVE-2014-9556).
