Description Martin Prpič 2016-12-08 03:53:45 EST

A heap buffer overflow flaw was found in the way openjpeg decompressed certain input images. Due to an insufficient check in the imagetopnm() function, an application using openjpeg to process image data could crash when processing a crafted image.

Upstream bug:

Upstream patch:

https://github.com/szukw000/openjpeg/commit/7b28bd2b723df6be09fe7791eba33147c1c47d0d

Note that the above patch fixes two issues: CVE-2016-9573 as well as CVE-2016-9572.
