CVE-2015-8388

PCRE before 8.38 mishandles the /(?=di(?<=(?1))|(?=(.))))/ pattern and related patterns with an unmatched closing parenthesis, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror.

PCRE en versiones anteriores a 8.38 no maneja correctamente el patrón /(?=di(?<=(?1))|(?=(.))))/ y patrones relacionados con un paréntesis de cierre no emparejado, lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (desbordamiento de buffer) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado a través de una expresión regular manipulada, según lo demostrado por un objeto JavaScript RegExp encontrado por Konqueror.
