A flaw was found in the way PCRE handled certain malformed regular

(CVE-2014-8964)

This update also adds the following enhancement:

  * Support for the little-endian variant of IBM Power Systems has been added
to the pcre packages. (BZ#1123498, BZ#1125642)

All pcre users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue and add this enhancement.");
