Synopsis ========
libpcre is vulnerable to a heap integer overflow, possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
libpcre is a library providing functions for Perl-compatible regular expressions.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 dev-libs/libpcre < 6.3 >= 6.3
Description ===========
libpcre fails to check certain quantifier values in regular expressions for sane values.
Impact ======
An attacker could possibly exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code by sending specially crafted regular expressions to applications making use of the libpcre library.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All libpcre users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/libpcre-6.3"
