<title>PCRE: Multiple vulnerabilities</title> |
22 |
<synopsis> |
23 |
PCRE is vulnerable to multiple buffer overflow and memory corruption |
24 |
vulnerabilities, possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code. |

Tavis Ormandy (Google Security) discovered multiple vulnerabilities in |
46 |
PCRE. He reported an error when processing "\Q\E" sequences with |
47 |
unmatched "\E" codes that can lead to the compiled bytecode being |
48 |
corrupted (CVE-2007-1659). PCRE does not properly calculate sizes for |
49 |
unspecified "multiple forms of character class", which triggers a |
50 |
buffer overflow (CVE-2007-1660). Further improper calculations of |
51 |
memory boundaries were reported when matching certain input bytes |
52 |
against regex patterns in non UTF-8 mode (CVE-2007-1661) and when |
53 |
searching for unmatched brackets or parentheses (CVE-2007-1662). |
54 |
Multiple integer overflows when processing escape sequences may lead to |
55 |
invalid memory read operations or potentially cause heap-based buffer |
56 |
overflows (CVE-2007-4766). PCRE does not properly handle "\P" and |
57 |
"\P{x}" sequences which can lead to heap-based buffer overflows or |
58 |
trigger the execution of infinite loops (CVE-2007-4767), PCRE is also |
59 |
prone to an error when optimizing character classes containing a |
60 |
singleton UTF-8 sequence which might lead to a heap-based buffer |
61 |
overflow (CVE-2007-4768). |
62 |

Chris Evans also reported multiple integer overflow vulnerabilities in |
65 |
PCRE when processing a large number of named subpatterns ("name_count") |
66 |
or long subpattern names ("max_name_size") (CVE-2006-7227), and via |
67 |
large "min", "max", or "duplength" values (CVE-2006-7228) both possibly |
68 |
leading to buffer overflows. Another vulnerability was reported when |
69 |
compiling patterns where the "-x" or "-i" UTF-8 options change within |
70 |
the pattern, which might lead to improper memory calculations |
71 |
(CVE-2006-7230). |

<impact type="normal"> |
75 |
<p> |
76 |
An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending specially |
77 |
crafted regular expressions to applications making use of the PCRE |
78 |
library, which could possibly lead to the execution of arbitrary code, |
79 |
a Denial of Service or the disclosure of sensitive information. |

84 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |

All PCRE users should upgrade to the latest version: |

# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/libpcre-7.3-r1"</code> |
