    * CVE-2017-9224: fix out-of-bounds read of a stack in match_at function

    * CVE-2017-9227: fix out-of-bounds read of a stack in mbc_enc_len function
    CVE(s):
    CVE-2017-9224
    An issue was discovered in Oniguruma 6.2.0, as used in Oniguruma-mod in Ruby through 2.4.1 and mbstring in
    PHP through 7.1.5. A stack out-of-bounds read occurs in match_at() during regular expression searching. A
    logical error involving order of validation and access in match_at() could result in an out-of-bounds read
    from a stack buffer.
    CVE-2017-9226
    An issue was discovered in Oniguruma 6.2.0, as used in Oniguruma-mod in Ruby through 2.4.1 and mbstring in
    PHP through 7.1.5. A heap out-of-bounds write or read occurs in next_state_val() during regular expression
    compilation. Octal numbers larger than 0xff are not handled correctly in fetch_token() and
    fetch_token_in_cc(). A malformed regular expression containing an octal number in the form of '\700' would
    produce an invalid code point value larger than 0xff in next_state_val(), resulting in an out-of-bounds
    write memory corruption.
    CVE-2017-9227
    An issue was discovered in Oniguruma 6.2.0, as used in Oniguruma-mod in Ruby through 2.4.1 and mbstring in
    PHP through 7.1.5. A stack out-of-bounds read occurs in mbc_enc_len() during regular expression searching.
    Invalid handling of reg->dmin in forward_search_range() could result in an invalid pointer dereference, as
    an out-of-bounds read from a stack buffer.
