Description Martin Prpič 2016-01-08 14:23:55 UTC
An integer overflow flaw was found in the way the JasPer's library jas_matrix_create() function parsed certain JPEG 2000 image files. A specially crafted file could cause an application using JasPer to crash.

This was originally filed against Fedora as bug 1294039, which includes a PoC for this issue.
