+Subject: [PATCH] Check for end of string in PatternMatch (CVE-2017-13720)
+
+If a pattern contains '?' character, any character in the string is skipped,
+even if it is '\0'. The rest of the matching then reads invalid memory.

+Without the checks a malformed PCF file can cause the library to make
+atom from random heap memory that was behind the `strings` buffer.
+This may crash the process or leak information.
