Descriptions

Heap-based buffer overflow in PCRE 8.34 through 8.37 and PCRE2 10.10 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by /^(?P=B)((?P=B)(?J:(?P<B>c)(?P<B>a(?P=B)))>WGXCREDITS)/, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-8384.

Desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica en PCRE 8.34 hasta la versión 8.37 y PCRE2 10.10 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario a través de una expresión regular manipulada, según lo demostrado por /^(?P=B)((?P=B)(?J:(?P
<b>c)(?P<b>a(?P=B)))>WGXCREDITS)/, una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2015-8384.</b></b>
