-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2015-11027 2015-07-02 15:04:59 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : pcre Product : Fedora 22 Version : 8.37 Release : 2.fc22 URL : http://www.pcre.org/ Summary : Perl-compatible regular expression library Description : Perl-compatible regular expression library. PCRE has its own native API, but a set of "wrapper" functions that are based on the POSIX API are also supplied in the library libpcreposix. Note that this just provides a POSIX calling interface to PCRE: the regular expressions themselves still follow Perl syntax and semantics. The header file for the POSIX-style functions is called pcreposix.h. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This release fixes two heap buffer overflows when compiling certain regular expressions: CVE-2015-3210 and CVE-2015-5073. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Wed Jul 1 2015 Petr Pisar <ppisar@redhat.com> - 8.37-2 - Fix CVE-2015-3210 (heap overflow when compiling an expression with named recursive back reference and the name is duplicated) (bug #1236659) - Fix CVE-2015-5073 (heap overflow when compiling an expression with an forward reference within backward asserion with excessive closing paranthesis) (bug #1237224) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #1226918 - CVE-2015-3210 pcre: heap buffer overflow in pcre_compile2() / compile_regex() https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1226918 [ 2 ] Bug #1237223 - CVE-2015-5073 pcre: heap buffer overflow in find_fixedlength() https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1237223 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
