Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-08-05 15:01:23 UTC

OpenJPEG is an open-source JPEG 2000 codec. In OpenJPEG 2.5.3 and earlier, a call to opj_jp2_read_header may lead to OOB heap memory write when the data stream p_stream is too short and p_image is not initialized.

Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2025-08-10 04:48:46 UTC

I believe that this issue was introduced in openjpeg 2.5.1, see https://github.com/uclouvain/openjpeg/pull/1573 and so does not apply to earlier versions of openjpeg
