-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2025-5905c468d2 2025-10-28 01:29:53.364203+00:00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : pcre2 Product : Fedora 42 Version : 10.46 Release : 1.fc42 URL : https://www.pcre.org/ Summary : Perl-compatible regular expression library Description : PCRE2 is a re-working of the original PCRE (Perl-compatible regular expression) library to provide an entirely new API. PCRE2 is written in C, and it has its own API. There are three sets of functions, one for the 8-bit library, which processes strings of bytes, one for the 16-bit library, which processes strings of 16-bit values, and one for the 32-bit library, which processes strings of 32-bit values. There are no C++ wrappers. This package provides support for strings in 8-bit and UTF-8 encodings. Install pcre2-utf16 or pcre2-utf32 packages for the other ones. The distribution does contain a set of C wrapper functions for the 8-bit library that are based on the POSIX regular expression API (see the pcre2posix man page). These can be found in a library called libpcre2posix. Note that this just provides a POSIX calling interface to PCRE2; the regular expressions themselves still follow Perl syntax and semantics. The POSIX API is restricted, and does not give full access to all of PCRE2's facilities. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Fix for CVE-2025-58050 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Sep 1 2025 Lukas Javorsky <ljavorsk@redhat.com> - 10.46-1 - Rebase to version 10.46 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #2405311 - PCRE2 10.45 - CVD-2025-58080 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2405311 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
