Synopsis:       Important: pcre security update
Issue date:     2007-11-29
CVE Names:      CVE-2006-7225 CVE-2006-7226 CVE-2006-7228
                  CVE-2006-7230 CVE-2007-1659 CVE-2007-1660

Flaws were discovered in the way PCRE handles certain malformed regular
expressions.  If an application linked against PCRE, such as Konqueror,
parsed a malicious regular expression, it may have been possible to run
arbitrary code as the user running the application. (CVE-2006-7225,
