Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - The compile_bracket_matchingpath function in pcre_jit_compile.c in PCRE through 8.x before revision 1680     (e.g., the PHP 7.1.1 bundled version) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds     read and application crash) via a crafted regular expression. (CVE-2017-6004)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5665-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that PCRE incorrectly handled certain regular expressions. A remote attacker could use     this issue to cause applications using PCRE to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-6004)

    It was discovered that PCRE incorrectly handled certain Unicode encoding. A remote attacker could use this     issue to cause applications using PCRE to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2017-7186)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201706-11 (PCRE library: Denial of Service)

    It was found that the compile_bracket_matchingpath function in       pcre_jit_compile.c in PCRE library is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds       read.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could possibly cause a Denial of Service condition via       a special crafted regular expression.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

This release fixes pcregrep multi-line matching with --only-matching option, a crash when JIT-compiling some patterns (CVE-2017-6004) and a possible buffer overflow when formatting a pcregrep error message.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

  - The _pcre32_xclass function in pcre_xclass.c in libpcre1 in PCRE 8.40 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (invalid memory read) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-7244)

  - 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)

  - 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 268) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-7246)

  - libpcre in PCRE before 8.43 allows a subject buffer over-read in JIT when UTF is disabled, and \X or \R     has more than one fixed quantifier, a related issue to CVE-2019-20454. (CVE-2019-20838)

  - libpcre in PCRE before 8.44 allows an integer overflow via a large number after a (?C substring.
