PCRE is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because the library fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.
|
|
|
|
Attackers may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of an application using the PCRE library. Failed attacks may result in denial-of-service conditions.
|
|
|
|
Versions prior to PCRE 8.02 are vulnerable; applications which use the PCRE library may also be affected.
