Descriptions

Use-after-free vulnerability in the mif_process_cmpt function in libjasper/mif/mif_cod.c in the JasPer JPEG-2000 library before 1.900.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted JPEG 2000 image file.

La vulnerabilidad de uso después liberada (Use-after-free) en la función mif_process_cmpt en el archivo libjasper/mif/mif_cod.c en la biblioteca JPEG-2000 de JasPer anterior a versión 1.900.2, permite a los atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (bloqueo) por medio de un archivo de imagen JPEG 2000 creado.

It was discovered that JasPer incorrectly handled certain malformed JPEG-2000 image files. If a user or automated system using JasPer were tricked into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute code with the privileges of the user invoking the program.
