    The regular expression identified appears vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) through catastrophic backtracking. If the input is attacker controllable, this vulnerability can lead to systems being non-responsive or may crash due to ReDoS. Where possible, re-write the regex so as not to leverage backtracking or use a library that offers default protection against ReDoS.<br />**Likelihood**: LOW<br />**Confidence**: HIGH<br />**CWE**: <br />- CWE-1333: Inefficient Regular Expression Complexity
