Description Thierry Carrez (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-07 05:06:06 UTC
wml 2.0.9 ships with PCRE 3.9 which might is probably affected by CAN-2005-2491,
see bug #103337 and GLSA 200508-17 for details.

ive fixed the autotools to use the system libpcre instead of the local one in
2.0.9-r1

Got SPARC?
Comment 6 Thierry Carrez (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-12 04:53:50 UTC
After closer research, WML includes the affected library but this cannot be
exploited to do anything. Closing (x86 should nevertheless mark stable, I guess)
