Doc Text:
A null pointer dereference vulnerability has been discovered in the openjpeg library. This flaw, identified through a fuzzing tool, could allow an attacker to cause a crash in an application processing a specially crafted file. While no active exploit has been demonstrated, a successful attack would lead to a denial-of-service condition. This presents a risk to the availability of systems that utilize openjpeg to process untrusted input.
