--- Comment #2 from Mehmet gelisin <mehmetgelisin@???> ---
I. Summary
PCRE is a regular expression C library inspired http://www-look-4.com/ by the
regular expression capabilities in the Perl programming language. The PCRE
library is incorporated into http://www.iu-bloomington.com/ a number of
prominent programs, such as Adobe Flash, Apache, Nginx, PHP.
PCRE library is prone to a vulnerability which leads to Heap Overflow. During
the compilation of https://www.webb-dev.co.uk/ a malformed regular expression,
more data is written on the malloced block than the expected size output by
compile_regex. Exploits with advanced Heap https://waytowhatsnext.com/
Fengshui techniques may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the
context of the user running the affected application.
------------------------------------------------------------------
II. Description http://www.acpirateradio.co.uk/
Latest version of PCRE is prone to a Heap Overflow vulnerability which could
caused by the following regular expression.

/(?J:(?|(:(?|(?'R')(\z(?|(?'R')(\k'R')|((?'R')))k'R')|((?'R')))H'Ak'Rf)|s(?'R')))/
http://www.logoarts.co.uk/

A dry run of this particular regular expression with pcretest will reports
"double free or corruption (!prev)".
But it is actually a heap overflow problem.
It is a similar problem as discussed. http://www.slipstone.co.uk/


Following test is conveyed with svn updated version of pcre,
Here is the memory layout of re(its size is 248) just before the second
compile_regexp(): http://embermanchester.uk/
