Hi,

the following vulnerability was published for libonig.

CVE-2017-9225[0]:
| An issue was discovered in Oniguruma 6.2.0, as used in Oniguruma-mod in
| Ruby through 2.4.1 and mbstring in PHP through 7.1.5. A stack
| out-of-bounds write in onigenc_unicode_get_case_fold_codes_by_str()
| occurs during regular expression compilation. Code point 0xFFFFFFFF is
| not properly handled in unicode_unfold_key(). A malformed regular
| expression could result in 4 bytes being written off the end of a stack
| buffer of expand_case_fold_string() during the call to
| onigenc_unicode_get_case_fold_codes_by_str(), a typical stack buffer
| overflow.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
