Description
JasPer is an implementation of Part 1 of the JPEG 2000 image compression
standard.
Multiple off-by-one flaws, leading to heap-based buffer overflows, were
found in the way JasPer decoded JPEG 2000 image files. A specially crafted
file could cause an application using JasPer to crash or, possibly, execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-9029)
A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way JasPer decoded JPEG
2000 image files. A specially crafted file could cause an application using
JasPer to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-8138)
A double free flaw was found in the way JasPer parsed ICC color profiles in
JPEG 2000 image files. A specially crafted file could cause an application
using JasPer to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-8137)
Red Hat would like to thank oCERT for reporting these issues. oCERT
acknowledges Jose Duart of the Google Security Team as the original
reporter.
All JasPer users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain backported patches to correct these issues. All applications using
the JasPer libraries must be restarted for the update to take effect.
