Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in PCRE, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or potentially compromise an application using the library.
1) Integer overflow errors when parsing regular expressions can be exploited to e.g. cause a crash or a buffer overflow via specially crafted regular expressions.
2) Errors in the processing of regular expressions and memory calculation errors can be exploited to cause memory corruption.
