RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 3 Tomas Hoger 2017-09-20 21:39:59 UTC 
The assertion failure in calcstepsizes() was previously reported as CVE-2016-9399 (bug 1396981) and is tracked upstream via this issue report:

https://github.com/mdadams/jasper/issues/83

Code paths leading to the assertion using your test case and the one in the report for CVE-2016-9399 are mostly the same.  Can you provide reasoning why the new CVE is required / justified here?  If you agree this is a dupe of the earlier CVE, please get the new CVE rejected as duplicate (similar to CVE-2017-13753).
Comment 4 owl337 2017-11-13 12:17:07 UTC 
Did you make sure the two trigger paths exactly the same?
Comment 5 Josef Ridky 2020-02-28 10:28:14 UTC 
This vulnerability was evaluated by the sub-system, taking into account the kind of the component, and its use cases. It was not considered as a priority for the next release, so it's being closed now as WONTFIX. Feel free to re-open the bug if there is a business reason to deliver a fix for this issue, and contact Red Hat Customer Support to request a re-evaluation of the issue, citing a clear business justification.
