CVE-2005-2491 1 Pcre 1 Pcre 2026-04-16 7.5 HIGH N/A
Integer overflow in pcre_compile.c in Perl Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE) before 6.2, as used in multiple products such as Python, Ethereal, and PHP, allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via quantifier values in regular expressions, which leads to a heap-based buffer overflow.
CVE-2005-4872 1 Pcre 1 Pcre 2026-04-16 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
Perl-Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE) library before 6.2 does not properly count the number of named capturing subpatterns, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a regular expression with a large number of named subpatterns, which triggers a buffer overflow. NOTE: this issue was originally subsumed by CVE-2006-7224, but that CVE has been REJECTED and split.
CVE-2025-58050 1 Pcre 1 Pcre2 2025-09-09 N/A 9.1 CRITICAL
The PCRE2 library is a set of C functions that implement regular expression pattern matching. In version 10.45, a heap-buffer-overflow read vulnerability exists in the PCRE2 regular expression matching engine, specifically within the handling of the (*scs:...) (Scan SubString) verb when combined with (*ACCEPT) in src/pcre2_match.c. This vulnerability may potentially lead to information disclosure if the out-of-bounds data read during the memcmp affects the final match result in a way observable by the attacker. This issue has been resolved in version 10.46.
CVE-2017-7246 1 Pcre 1 Pcre 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
Stack-based buffer overflow in the pcre32_copy_substring function in pcre_get.c in libpcre1 in PCRE 8.40 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (WRITE of size 268) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file.
CVE-2017-7186 1 Pcre 2 Pcre, Pcre2 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
libpcre1 in PCRE 8.40 and libpcre2 in PCRE2 10.23 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation violation for read access, and application crash) by triggering an invalid Unicode property lookup.
CVE-2017-11164 1 Pcre 1 Pcre 2025-04-20 7.8 HIGH 7.5 HIGH
In PCRE 8.41, the OP_KETRMAX feature in the match function in pcre_exec.c allows stack exhaustion (uncontrolled recursion) when processing a crafted regular expression.
CVE-2017-7244 1 Pcre 1 Pcre 2025-04-20 4.3 MEDIUM 5.5 MEDIUM
The _pcre32_xclass function in pcre_xclass.c in libpcre1 in PCRE 8.40 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid memory read) via a crafted file.
CVE-2017-6004 1 Pcre 1 Pcre 2025-04-20 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The compile_bracket_matchingpath function in pcre_jit_compile.c in PCRE through 8.x before revision 1680 (e.g., the PHP 7.1.1 bundled version) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via a crafted regular expression.
CVE-2017-8399 1 Pcre 1 Pcre2 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
PCRE2 before 10.30 has an out-of-bounds write caused by a stack-based buffer overflow in pcre2_match.c, related to a "pattern with very many captures."
CVE-2017-8786 1 Pcre 1 Pcre2 2025-04-20 7.5 HIGH 9.8 CRITICAL
pcre2test.c in PCRE2 10.23 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression.
CVE-2017-7245 1 Pcre 1 Pcre 2025-04-20 6.8 MEDIUM 7.8 HIGH
Stack-based buffer overflow in the pcre32_copy_substring function in pcre_get.c in libpcre1 in PCRE 8.40 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (WRITE of size 4) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted file.
CVE-2015-2327 1 Pcre 1 Perl Compatible Regular Expression Library 2025-04-12 7.5 HIGH N/A
PCRE before 8.36 mishandles the /(((a\2)|(a*)\g<-1>))*/ pattern and related patterns with certain internal recursive back references, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror.
CVE-2015-8380 2 Fedoraproject, Pcre 2 Fedora, Perl Compatible Regular Expression Library 2025-04-12 7.5 HIGH N/A
The pcre_exec function in pcre_exec.c in PCRE before 8.38 mishandles a // pattern with a \01 string, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror.
