/tmp/portage/media-libs/jasper-1.900.17/work/jasper-1.900.17/src/libjasper/include/jasper/jas_math.h:156:11: runtime error: left shift of negative value -185

CVE: CVE-2017-5498

Comment 4 Tomas Hoger 2017-03-14 13:56:05 UTC
The important information form the advisory is that this crash only occurs when jasper is compiles with undefined behaviour sanitizer (ubsan) enabled.  That is a development tool aimed to identify possible code bugs related to undefined behaviour.  There is no crash as described by this CVE in builds not using ubsan.
