Mandriva- Advisories MDVSA-2008:030: Updated pcre packages fix vulnerability

Advisories MDVSA-2008:030: Updated pcre packages fix vulnerability
Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered by Tavis Ormandy and
Will Drewry in the way that pcre handled certain malformed regular
expressions. If an application linked against pcre, such as Konqueror,
parses a malicious regular expression, it could lead to the execution
of arbitrary code as the user running the application.

Updated packages have been patched to prevent this issue.
