A vulnerability was found in the PCRE regular expression handling
library which allows an attacker to crash or overflow a buffer in the
program by specifying a special regular expression.

Since this library is used in a large number of packages, including
apache2, php4, exim, postfix and similar, a remote attack could be
possible.

This is tracked by the Mitre CVE ID CVE-2005-2491." );
