+Description:
+ An integer overflow problem was discovered in the Perl Compatible
+ Regular Expressions (PCRE) [1] library, version 6.2 and earlier.
+ The problem allows a remote or local attacker to execute arbitrary
+ code by causing a heap-based buffer overflow via quantifier values
+ in regular expressions. As PCRE is a popular library, this problem
+ affects many applications. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
+ (CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2005-2491 [2] to the problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/openpkg
+ rpm -q pcre". If you have the "pcre" package installed and its version
+ is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it
+ (see Solution) and its dependent packages (see above), too [3][4].
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
+ binary RPM [4]. For the most recent release OpenPKG 2.4, perform the
+ following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
+ other releases adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/2.4/UPD
+ ftp> get pcre-6.0-2.4.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig pcre-6.0-2.4.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild pcre-6.0-2.4.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/pcre-6.0-2.4.1.*.rpm
+
+ Additionally, we recommend that you rebuild and reinstall
+ all dependent packages (see above), too [3][4].
