--- Comment #1 from Philip Hazel <ph10@???> ---
The pcre2serialize man page does already say this: "The facility for saving and
restoring compiled patterns is intended for use within individual applications.
As such, the data supplied to pcre2_serialize_decode() is expected to be
trusted data, not data from arbitrary external sources. There is only some
simple consistency checking, not complete validation of what is being
re-loaded."

I have added some more words about this particular issue. Thanks for the
report.
