Descriptions
Heap-based buffer overflow in the find_fixedlength function in pcre_compile.c in PCRE before 8.38 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or obtain sensitive information from heap memory and possibly bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via a crafted regular expression with an excess closing parenthesis.
Desbordamiento de búfer basado en memoria dinámica en la función find_fixedlength en pcre_compile.c en PCRE en versiones anteriores a 8.38 permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (caída) u obtener información sensible de la memoria dinámica y posiblemente eludir el mecanismo de protección ASLR a través de una expresión regular manipulada con un paréntesis de cierre excesivo.
