Thanks for the bug report. I tracked it down to a read buffer overrun in glibc's regexec.c and filed a bug report with a fix here:

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24114

glibc is frozen right now (it's just before the glibc 2.29 release), so most likely the bug fix will appear in glibc 2.30. I plan to propagate the fix into Gnulib (and therefore into grep) shortly after glibc 2.29 is released.
