CentOS 9 : openjpeg2-2.4.0-7.el9

medium Nessus Plugin ID 191166

Language:

Synopsis

The remote CentOS host is missing a security update for openjpeg2.

Description

The remote CentOS Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the openjpeg2-2.4.0-7.el9 build changelog.

 - A flaw was found in the opj2_decompress program in openjpeg2 2.4.0 in the way it handles an input directory with a large number of files. When it fails to allocate a buffer to store the filenames of the input directory, it calls free() on an uninitialized pointer, leading to a segmentation fault and a denial of service. (CVE-2022-1122)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the CentOS 9 Stream openjpeg2 package.
