From cbb271655cadeb8dbb258a64701d9a3a0c4835b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pranjal Jumde Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2016 06:34:26 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Bug 757711: heap-buffer-overflow in xmlFAParsePosCharGroup * xmlregexp.c: (xmlFAParseCharRange): Only advance to the next character if there is no error. Advancing to the next character in case of an error while parsing regexp leads to an out of bounds access.
