This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12:Update update project.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Stack-based buffer overflow in the jpc_tsfb_getbands2 function in jpc_tsfb.c in JasPer before 1.900.30     allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted image. (CVE-2016-9560)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2017:1208 advisory.

    JasPer is an implementation of Part 1 of the JPEG 2000 image compression standard.

    Security Fix(es):

    Multiple flaws were found in the way JasPer decoded JPEG 2000 image files. A specially crafted file could     cause an application using JasPer to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-8654,     CVE-2016-9560, CVE-2016-10249, CVE-2015-5203, CVE-2015-5221, CVE-2016-1577, CVE-2016-8690, CVE-2016-8693,     CVE-2016-8884, CVE-2016-8885, CVE-2016-9262, CVE-2016-9591)
