CVE-2021-3575

Se encontró un desbordamiento de búfer en la región heap de la memoria en openjpeg en color.c:379:42 en sycc420_to_rgb cuando es descomprimido un archivo .j2k diseñado. Un atacante podría usar esto para ejecutar código arbitrario con los permisos de la aplicación compilada contra openjpeg

A heap-based buffer overflow was found in OpenJPEG. This flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the application compiled against OpenJPEG.

It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled certain memory operations when using the command line "-ImgDir" in a directory with a large number of files, leading to an integer overflow vulnerability. An attacker could potentially use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled decompressing certain .j2k files in sycc420_to_rgb, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code.
