| Description: | It has been discovered that the Perl interpreter may encounter a buffer overflow condition when compiling certain regular expressions containing Unicode characters. This also happens if the offending characters are contained in a variable reference protected by the \Q...\E quoting construct. When encountering this condition, the Perl interpreter typically crashes, but arbitrary code execution cannot be ruled out. | ||
