commit: https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/commit/664db5d62c952f69f5cefe91a88ba9f107cd0b5b
branch: https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/tree/master

https://github.com/PCRE2Project/pcre2/releases/tag/pcre2-10.48

Fixes the following security issues:

(Security fix for specific API usage, GHSA-2p8c-ff85-vh9x)
 If pcre2_jit_compile() is called with options for some match modes, and
 then pcre2_match() is used to perform a match for a different match
 mode, an out-of-bounds read can occur if the match is attempted against
 invalid UTF input.

(Security fix for pattern conversion, GHSA-q8g2-wprr-34m9)
 If pcre2_convert() is called on untrusted input on platforms with
 32-bit size_t, an out-of-bounds heap write can occur.

(Security fix, GHSA-3r4p-g7gg-ppmf) Fixed an out-of-bounds write in DFA
 matching when using a heap limit; also fixed possible integer overflows
 which could cause under-allocation of the workspace.

(Security fix, GHSA-fmgr-6ggq-9859) Added bounds checks for several
 integer overflows while compiling patterns on 32-bit CPUs, which could
 cause under-allocation followed by out-of-bounds writes.

(Security fix, GHSA-9qww-pwc4-77qq) Applied lower buffer bound to
 prevent two out-of-bounds reads while scanning backwards through
 invalid UTF data with PCRE2_MATCH_INVALID_UTF.

(Security fix for specific API usage, #937) Fixed a leak and later
 invalid free when calling the fast-path pcre2_jit_match() function with
 a match data object previously used with pcre2_match() and
 PCRE2_COPY_MATCHED_SUBJECT.

(Low-severity security fix, GHSA-q7rw-r7qq-2hx6) Fixed exposure of two
 uninitialised bytes from malloc() via pcre2_serialize_encode().
