TL;DR

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to denial of service (DoS) due to a runtime panic in the ParseTemplateConfig function when handling malformed inputs like : or :::. The issue occurs because empty regex matches lead to out-of-range indexing. The fix adds proper handling for empty matches, returning a controlled error instead of panicking.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
