Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in openjpeg2, the open-source JPEG 2000 codec.

CVE-2018-6616

Excessive iteration in the opj_t1_encode_cblks function (openjp2/t1.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted bmp file.

CVE-2018-14423

Division-by-zero vulnerabilities in the functions pi_next_pcrl, pi_next_cprl, and pi_next_rpcl in (lib/openjp3d/pi.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service (application crash).
