medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 400084

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- A heap-based buffer overflow issue was discovered in libjpeg-turbo in h2v2_merged_upsample_internal()
function of jdmrgext.c file. The vulnerability can only be exploited with 12-bit data precision for which
the range of the sample data type exceeds the valid sample range, hence, an attacker could craft a 12-bit
lossless JPEG image that contains out-of-range 12-bit samples. An application attempting to decompress
such image using merged upsampling would lead to segmentation fault or buffer overflows, causing an
application to crash. (CVE-2023-2804)
