This bug was fixed in the package erlang - 1:13.b.1-dfsg-2ubuntu1.1

---------------
erlang (1:13.b.1-dfsg-2ubuntu1.1) karmic-security; urgency=low

  * SECURITY UPDATE: denial of service via Heap-based buffer overflow in
    pcre_compile.c in the Perl-Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE)
    library (LP: #535090)
    - CVE-2008-2371
    - debian/patches/pcre-crash.patch is cherrypicked from upstream commit
      http://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/bb6370a2. The hunk for the
      testsuite does not apply cleanly and is not needed for the fix so was
      stripped. This fix is part of the current upstream OTP release R13B04.
