PCRE is a Perl-compatible regular expression library.
Flaws were found in the way PCRE handles certain malformed regular
expressions. If an application linked against PCRE, such as Konqueror,
parses a malicious regular expression, it may be possible to run arbitrary
code as the user running the application. (CVE-2005-4872, CVE-2006-7227)
Users of PCRE are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct these issues.
