From the release notes:

Version 8.38 23-November-2015
-----------------------------

1. If a group that contained a recursive back reference also contained a
forward reference subroutine call followed by a non-forward-reference
subroutine call, for example /.((?2)(?R)\1)()/, pcre2_compile() failed to
compile correct code, leading to undefined behaviour or an internally
detected error. This bug was discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

2. Quantification of certain items (e.g. atomic back references) could cause
incorrect code to be compiled when recursive forward references were
involved. For example, in this pattern: /(?1)()((((((\1++))\x85)+)|))/.
This bug was discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

3. A repeated conditional group whose condition was a reference by name caused
a buffer overflow if there was more than one group with the given name.
This bug was discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

4. A recursive back reference by name within a group that had the same name as
another group caused a buffer overflow. For example:
/(?J)(?'d'(?'d'\g{d}))/. This bug was discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

5. A forward reference by name to a group whose number is the same as the
current group, for example in this pattern: /(?|(\k'Pm')|(?'Pm'))/, caused
a buffer overflow at compile time. This bug was discovered by the LLVM
fuzzer.

6. A lookbehind assertion within a set of mutually recursive subpatterns could
provoke a buffer overflow. This bug was discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

7. Another buffer overflow bug involved duplicate named groups with a
reference between their definition, with a group that reset capture
numbers, for example: /(?J:(?|(?'R')(\k'R')|((?'R'))))/. This has been
fixed by always allowing for more memory, even if not needed. (A proper fix
is implemented in PCRE2, but it involves more refactoring.)

8. There was no check for integer overflow in subroutine calls such as (?123).

9. The table entry for \l in EBCDIC environments was incorrect, leading to its
being treated as a literal 'l' instead of causing an error.

10. There was a buffer overflow if pcre_exec() was called with an ovector of
size 1. This bug was found by american fuzzy lop.

11. If a non-capturing group containing a conditional group that could match
an empty string was repeated, it was not identified as matching an empty
string itself. For example: /^(?:(?(1)x|)+)+$()/.

12. In an EBCDIC environment, pcretest was mishandling the escape sequences
\a and \e in test subject lines.

13. In an EBCDIC environment, \a in a pattern was converted to the ASCII
instead of the EBCDIC value.

14. The handling of \c in an EBCDIC environment has been revised so that it is
now compatible with the specification in Perl's perlebcdic page.

15. The EBCDIC character 0x41 is a non-breaking space, equivalent to 0xa0 in
ASCII/Unicode. This has now been added to the list of characters that are
recognized as white space in EBCDIC.

16. When PCRE was compiled without UCP support, the use of \p and \P gave an
error (correctly) when used outside a class, but did not give an error
within a class.

17. \h within a class was incorrectly compiled in EBCDIC environments.

18. A pattern with an unmatched closing parenthesis that contained a backward
assertion which itself contained a forward reference caused buffer
overflow. And example pattern is: /(?=di(?<=(?1))|(?=(.))))/.

19. JIT should return with error when the compiled pattern requires more stack
space than the maximum.

20. A possessively repeated conditional group that could match an empty string,
for example, /(?(R))*+/, was incorrectly compiled.

21. Fix infinite recursion in the JIT compiler when certain patterns such as
/(?:|a|){100}x/ are analysed.

22. Some patterns with character classes involving [: and \\ were incorrectly
compiled and could cause reading from uninitialized memory or an incorrect
error diagnosis.

23. Pathological patterns containing many nested occurrences of [: caused
pcre_compile() to run for a very long time.

24. A conditional group with only one branch has an implicit empty alternative
branch and must therefore be treated as potentially matching an empty
string.

25. If (?R was followed by - or + incorrect behaviour happened instead of a
diagnostic.

26. Arrange to give up on finding the minimum matching length for overly
complex patterns.

27. Similar to (4) above: in a pattern with duplicated named groups and an
occurrence of (?| it is possible for an apparently non-recursive back
reference to become recursive if a later named group with the relevant
number is encountered. This could lead to a buffer overflow. Wen Guanxing
from Venustech ADLAB discovered this bug.

28. If pcregrep was given the -q option with -c or -l, or when handling a
binary file, it incorrectly wrote output to stdout.

29. The JIT compiler did not restore the control verb head in case of *THEN
control verbs. This issue was found by Karl Skomski with a custom LLVM
fuzzer.

30. Error messages for syntax errors following \g and \k were giving inaccurate
offsets in the pattern.

31. Added a check for integer overflow in conditions (?(<digits>) and
(?(R<digits>). This omission was discovered by Karl Skomski with the LLVM
fuzzer.

32. Handling recursive references such as (?2) when the reference is to a group
later in the pattern uses code that is very hacked about and error-prone.
It has been re-written for PCRE2. Here in PCRE1, a check has been added to
give an internal error if it is obvious that compiling has gone wrong.

33. The JIT compiler should not check repeats after a {0,1} repeat byte code.
This issue was found by Karl Skomski with a custom LLVM fuzzer.

34. The JIT compiler should restore the control chain for empty possessive
repeats. This issue was found by Karl Skomski with a custom LLVM fuzzer.

35. Match limit check added to JIT recursion. This issue was found by Karl
Skomski with a custom LLVM fuzzer.

36. Yet another case similar to 27 above has been circumvented by an
unconditional allocation of extra memory. This issue is fixed "properly" in
PCRE2 by refactoring the way references are handled. Wen Guanxing
from Venustech ADLAB discovered this bug.

37. Fix two assertion fails in JIT. These issues were found by Karl Skomski
with a custom LLVM fuzzer.

38. Fixed a corner case of range optimization in JIT.

39. An incorrect error "overran compiling workspace" was given if there were
exactly enough group forward references such that the last one extended
into the workspace safety margin. The next one would have expanded the
workspace. The test for overflow was not including the safety margin.

40. A match limit issue is fixed in JIT which was found by Karl Skomski
with a custom LLVM fuzzer.

41. Remove the use of /dev/null in testdata/testinput2, because it doesn't
work under Windows. (Why has it taken so long for anyone to notice?)

42. In a character class such as [\W\p{Any}] where both a negative-type escape
("not a word character") and a property escape were present, the property
escape was being ignored.

43. Fix crash caused by very long (*MARK) or (*THEN) names.

44. A sequence such as [[:punct:]b] that is, a POSIX character class followed
by a single ASCII character in a class item, was incorrectly compiled in
UCP mode. The POSIX class got lost, but only if the single character
followed it.

45. [:punct:] in UCP mode was matching some characters in the range 128-255
that should not have been matched.

46. If [:^ascii:] or [:^xdigit:] or [:^cntrl:] are present in a non-negated
class, all characters with code points greater than 255 are in the class.
When a Unicode property was also in the class (if PCRE_UCP is set, escapes
such as \w are turned into Unicode properties), wide characters were not
correctly handled, and could fail to match.

8366e8beecf85b8e61b5c1a1369666db7a292eae 15-Aug-2015 Elliott Hughes <enh@google.com> Upgrade to pcre-3.87 (2015-04-28).

As before, dist/ is untouched upstream source.

From the release notes:

1. When an (*ACCEPT) is triggered inside capturing parentheses, it arranges
for those parentheses to be closed with whatever has been captured so far.
However, it was failing to mark any other groups between the hightest
capture so far and the currrent group as "unset". Thus, the ovector for
those groups contained whatever was previously there. An example is the
pattern /(x)|((*ACCEPT))/ when matched against "abcd".

2. If an assertion condition was quantified with a minimum of zero (an odd
thing to do, but it happened), SIGSEGV or other misbehaviour could occur.

3. If a pattern in pcretest input had the P (POSIX) modifier followed by an
unrecognized modifier, a crash could occur.

4. An attempt to do global matching in pcretest with a zero-length ovector
caused a crash.

5. Fixed a memory leak during matching that could occur for a subpattern
subroutine call (recursive or otherwise) if the number of captured groups
that had to be saved was greater than ten.

6. Catch a bad opcode during auto-possessification after compiling a bad UTF
string with NO_UTF_CHECK. This is a tidyup, not a bug fix, as passing bad
UTF with NO_UTF_CHECK is documented as having an undefined outcome.

7. A UTF pattern containing a "not" match of a non-ASCII character and a
subroutine reference could loop at compile time. Example: /[^\xff]((?1))/.

8. When a pattern is compiled, it remembers the highest back reference so that
when matching, if the ovector is too small, extra memory can be obtained to
use instead. A conditional subpattern whose condition is a check on a
capture having happened, such as, for example in the pattern
/^(?:(a)|b)(?(1)A|B)/, is another kind of back reference, but it was not
setting the highest backreference number. This mattered only if pcre_exec()
was called with an ovector that was too small to hold the capture, and there
was no other kind of back reference (a situation which is probably quite
rare). The effect of the bug was that the condition was always treated as
FALSE when the capture could not be consulted, leading to a incorrect
behaviour by pcre_exec(). This bug has been fixed.

9. A reference to a duplicated named group (either a back reference or a test
for being set in a conditional) that occurred in a part of the pattern where
PCRE_DUPNAMES was not set caused the amount of memory needed for the pattern
to be incorrectly calculated, leading to overwriting.

10. A mutually recursive set of back references such as (\2)(\1) caused a
segfault at study time (while trying to find the minimum matching length).
The infinite loop is now broken (with the minimum length unset, that is,
zero).

11. If an assertion that was used as a condition was quantified with a minimum
of zero, matching went wrong. In particular, if the whole group had
unlimited repetition and could match an empty string, a segfault was
likely. The pattern (?(?=0)?)+ is an example that caused this. Perl allows
assertions to be quantified, but not if they are being used as conditions,
so the above pattern is faulted by Perl. PCRE has now been changed so that
it also rejects such patterns.

12. A possessive capturing group such as (a)*+ with a minimum repeat of zero
failed to allow the zero-repeat case if pcre2_exec() was called with an
ovector too small to capture the group.

13. Fixed two bugs in pcretest that were discovered by fuzzing and reported by
Red Hat Product Security:

(a) A crash if /K and /F were both set with the option to save the compiled
pattern.

(b) Another crash if the option to print captured substrings in a callout
was combined with setting a null ovector, for example \O\C+ as a subject
string.

14. A pattern such as "((?2){0,1999}())?", which has a group containing a
forward reference repeated a large (but limited) number of times within a
repeated outer group that has a zero minimum quantifier, caused incorrect
code to be compiled, leading to the error "internal error:
previously-checked referenced subpattern not found" when an incorrect
memory address was read. This bug was reported as "heap overflow",
discovered by Kai Lu of Fortinet's FortiGuard Labs and given the CVE number
CVE-2015-2325.

23. A pattern such as "((?+1)(\1))/" containing a forward reference subroutine
call within a group that also contained a recursive back reference caused
incorrect code to be compiled. This bug was reported as "heap overflow",
discovered by Kai Lu of Fortinet's FortiGuard Labs, and given the CVE
number CVE-2015-2326.

24. Computing the size of the JIT read-only data in advance has been a source
of various issues, and new ones are still appear unfortunately. To fix
existing and future issues, size computation is eliminated from the code,
and replaced by on-demand memory allocation.

25. A pattern such as /(?i)[A-`]/, where characters in the other case are
adjacent to the end of the range, and the range contained characters with
more than one other case, caused incorrect behaviour when compiled in UTF
mode. In that example, the range a-j was left out of the class.

26. Fix JIT compilation of conditional blocks, which assertion
is converted to (*FAIL). E.g: /(?(?!))/.

27. The pattern /(?(?!)^)/ caused references to random memory. This bug was
discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

28. The assertion (?!) is optimized to (*FAIL). This was not handled correctly
when this assertion was used as a condition, for example (?(?!)a|b). In
pcre2_match() it worked by luck; in pcre2_dfa_match() it gave an incorrect
error about an unsupported item.

29. For some types of pattern, for example /Z*(|d*){216}/, the auto-
possessification code could take exponential time to complete. A recursion
depth limit of 1000 has been imposed to limit the resources used by this
optimization.

30. A pattern such as /(*UTF)[\S\V\H]/, which contains a negated special class
such as \S in non-UCP mode, explicit wide characters (> 255) can be ignored
because \S ensures they are all in the class. The code for doing this was
interacting badly with the code for computing the amount of space needed to
compile the pattern, leading to a buffer overflow. This bug was discovered
by the LLVM fuzzer.

31. A pattern such as /((?2)+)((?1))/ which has mutual recursion nested inside
other kinds of group caused stack overflow at compile time. This bug was
discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

32. A pattern such as /(?1)(?#?'){8}(a)/ which had a parenthesized comment
between a subroutine call and its quantifier was incorrectly compiled,
leading to buffer overflow or other errors. This bug was discovered by the
LLVM fuzzer.

33. The illegal pattern /(?(?<E>.*!.*)?)/ was not being diagnosed as missing an
assertion after (?(. The code was failing to check the character after
(?(?< for the ! or = that would indicate a lookbehind assertion. This bug
was discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

34. A pattern such as /X((?2)()*+){2}+/ which has a possessive quantifier with
a fixed maximum following a group that contains a subroutine reference was
incorrectly compiled and could trigger buffer overflow. This bug was
discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

35. A mutual recursion within a lookbehind assertion such as (?<=((?2))((?1)))
caused a stack overflow instead of the diagnosis of a non-fixed length
lookbehind assertion. This bug was discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

36. The use of \K in a positive lookbehind assertion in a non-anchored pattern
(e.g. /(?<=\Ka)/) could make pcregrep loop.

37. There was a similar problem to 36 in pcretest for global matches.

38. If a greedy quantified \X was preceded by \C in UTF mode (e.g. \C\X*),
and a subsequent item in the pattern caused a non-match, backtracking over
the repeated \X did not stop, but carried on past the start of the subject,
causing reference to random memory and/or a segfault. There were also some
other cases where backtracking after \C could crash. This set of bugs was
discovered by the LLVM fuzzer.

39. The function for finding the minimum length of a matching string could take
a very long time if mutual recursion was present many times in a pattern,
for example, /((?2){73}(?2))((?1))/. A better mutual recursion detection
method has been implemented. This infelicity was discovered by the LLVM
fuzzer.

40. Static linking against the PCRE library using the pkg-config module was
failing on missing pthread symbols.
