[SECURITY] Fedora 22 Update: pcre-8.38-3.fc22

Perl-compatible regular expression library. PCRE has its own native API, but a set of "wrapper" functions that are base d on the POSIX API are also supplied in the library libpcreposix. Note that this just provides a POSIX calling interface to PCRE: the regular expressions themselves still follow...

Fedora 22 : pcre-8.38-3.fc22 (2016-f5af8e27ce)

This release fixes a heap buffer overflow in handling of nested duplicate named groups with a nested back reference and a heap buffer overflow in pcretest causing infinite loop when matching globally with an ovector less than 2. Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding...

pcre: arbitrary code execution

PCRE library is prone to a vulnerability which leads to Heap Overflow. During the compilation of a malformed regular expression, more data is written on the malloced block than the expected size output by compileregex. Exploits with advanced Heap Fengshui techniques may allow an attacker to execu...
