Descriptions

The tcd_free_encode function in tcd.c in OpenJPEG 1.3 through 1.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted tile information in a Gray16 TIFF image, which causes insufficient memory to be allocated and leads to an "invalid free."

La función tcd_free_encode tcd.c en OpenJPEG v1.3 a v1.5 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria) y posiblemente ejecutar código arbitrario a través de la información de mosaico modificada en una imagen Gray16 TIFF, lo que hace que no se reserve la memoria suficiente y conduce a un "invalid free".

Multiple vulnerabilities in OpenJPEG could result in execution of arbitrary code. Versions less than 1.5.1 are affected.
