vulnerabilities :

  - pcregrep in PCRE before 8.38 mishandles the -q option

    obtain sensitive information via a crafted file, as
    demonstrated by a CGI script that sends stdout data to
    a client.(CVE-2015-8393)

  - Stack-based buffer overflow in the
    pcre32_copy_substring function in pcre_get.c in
    libpcre1 in PCRE 8.40 allows remote attackers to cause
    a denial of service (WRITE of size 4) or possibly have
    unspecified other impact via a crafted
    file.(CVE-2017-7245)

description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues.");
