- Off-by-one error in the jpc_dec_process_sot(). Could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted JPEG 2000 image, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. (bsc#911837). (CVE-2014-8157)

- Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in jpc_qmfb.c.
