https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2014-3538
03 Jul 2014 — file before 5.19 does not properly restrict the amount of data read during a regex search, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted file that triggers backtracking during processing of an awk rule. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-7345. file anterior a 5.19 no restringe debidamente la cantidad de datos leídos durante una búsqueda regex, lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (consumo de C... • http://lists.apple.com/archives/security-announce/2015/Apr/msg00001.html • CWE-399: Resource Management Errors •
