--- Comment #1 from Petr Pisar <ppisar@???> ---
Content of the file is:

00000000  2f 5c 43 5b 5e 30 30 5d  2a 5e 74 2f 75 74 66 0a  |/\C[^00]*^t/utf.|
00000010  f3 a4 8c 97 74 0a                                 |....t.|

The expression starts with \C and the subject string contains characters coded
in more than one code unit (the first four bytes, U+000e4317). pcre2pattern(3)
reads:

       Because  \C  breaks  up characters into individual code units, matching
       one unit with \C in UTF-8 or UTF-16 mode means that  the  rest  of  the
       string  may  start  with  a malformed UTF character. This has undefined
       results, because PCRE2 assumes that it is matching character by charac‐
       ter  in  a  valid UTF string (by default it checks the subject string's
       validity at the  start  of  processing  unless  the  PCRE2_NO_UTF_CHECK
       option is used).


I believe you hit documented undefined behavior.
