NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rh-php56-php-pgsql package and not the rh-php56-php-pgsql package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

PCRE before 8.38 mishandles the /(?|(\k'Pm')|(?'Pm'))/ pattern and related patterns with certain forward references, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted regular expression, as demonstrated by a JavaScript RegExp object encountered by Konqueror.
