Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- In OpenJPEG 2.3.0, a stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in the pgxtovolume function in
jp3d/convert.c. The vulnerability causes an out-of-bounds write, which may lead to remote denial of
service or possibly remote code execution. (CVE-2017-17480)

- Division-by-zero vulnerabilities in the functions pi_next_pcrl, pi_next_cprl, and pi_next_rpcl in
lib/openjp3d/pi.c in OpenJPEG through 2.3.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(application crash). (CVE-2018-14423)
