Descriptions

Multiple integer signedness errors in the opj_j2k_update_image_data function in j2k.c in OpenJPEG, as used in PDFium in Google Chrome before 49.0.2623.87, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect cast and out-of-bounds write) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted JPEG 2000 data.

Múltiples errores de entero sin signo en la función opj_j2k_update_image_data en j2k.c en OpenJPEG, como se utiliza en PDFium en Google Chrome en versiones anteriores a 49.0.2623.87, permiten a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (proyección incorrecta y escritura fuera de rango) o posiblemente tener otro impacto no especificado a través de datos JPEG 2000 manipulados.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Google Chrome. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the handling of JPEG2000 images. A specially crafted JPEG2000 image embedded inside a PDF can force Google Chrome to write memory past the end of an allocated object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the current process.
