This update fixes CVE-2018-5785.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in openjpeg2, the open-source JPEG 2000 codec, that could be leveraged to cause a denial of service or possibly remote code execution.

  - CVE-2017-17480     Write stack-based buffer overflow in the jp3d and jpwl     codecs can result in a denial of service or remote code     execution via a crafted jp3d or jpwl file.

  - CVE-2018-5785     Integer overflow can result in a denial of service via a     crafted bmp file.

  - CVE-2018-6616     Excessive iteration can result in a denial of service     via a crafted bmp file.

  - CVE-2018-14423     Division-by-zero vulnerabilities can result in a denial     of service via a crafted j2k file.

  - CVE-2018-18088     NULL pointer dereference can result in a denial of     service via a crafted bmp file.

The remote AlmaLinux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALSA-2021:4251 advisory.

  - In OpenJPEG 2.3.0, there is an integer overflow vulnerability 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-2018-5727)

  - In OpenJPEG 2.3.0, there is an integer overflow caused by an out-of-bounds left shift in the     opj_j2k_setup_encoder function (openjp2/j2k.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to     cause a denial of service via a crafted bmp file. (CVE-2018-5785)

  - Division-by-zero vulnerabilities in the functions pi_next_pcrl, pi_next_cprl, and pi_next_rpcl in     openmj2/pi.c in OpenJPEG through 2.3.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application     crash). (CVE-2018-20845)

  - An improper computation of p_tx0, p_tx1, p_ty0 and p_ty1 in the function opj_get_encoding_parameters in     openjp2/pi.c in OpenJPEG through 2.3.0 can lead to an integer overflow. (CVE-2018-20847)

  - In OpenJPEG 2.3.1, there is excessive iteration in the opj_t1_encode_cblks function of openjp2/t1.c.
    Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted bmp file.
    This issue is similar to CVE-2018-6616. (CVE-2019-12973)

  - jp2/opj_decompress.c in OpenJPEG through 2.3.1 has a use-after-free that can be triggered if there is a     mix of valid and invalid files in a directory operated on by the decompressor. Triggering a double-free     may also be possible. This is related to calling opj_image_destroy twice. (CVE-2020-15389)

  - A heap-buffer overflow was found in the way openjpeg2 handled certain PNG format files. An attacker could     use this flaw to cause an application crash or in some cases execute arbitrary code with the permission of     the user running such an application. (CVE-2020-27814)

  - A flaw was found in OpenJPEG's encoder. This flaw allows an attacker to pass specially crafted x,y offset     input to OpenJPEG to use during encoding. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to     confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability. (CVE-2020-27823)

  - A flaw was found in OpenJPEG's encoder in the opj_dwt_calc_explicit_stepsizes() function. This flaw allows     an attacker who can supply crafted input to decomposition levels to cause a buffer overflow. The highest     threat from this vulnerability is to system availability. (CVE-2020-27824)

  - There's a flaw in openjpeg's t2 encoder in versions prior to 2.4.0. An attacker who is able to provide     crafted input to be processed by openjpeg could cause a null pointer dereference. The highest impact of     this flaw is to application availability. (CVE-2020-27842)

  - A flaw was found in OpenJPEG in versions prior to 2.4.0. This flaw allows an attacker to provide specially     crafted input to the conversion or encoding functionality, causing an out-of-bounds read. The highest     threat from this vulnerability is system availability. (CVE-2020-27843)

  - There's a flaw in src/lib/openjp2/pi.c of openjpeg in versions prior to 2.4.0. If an attacker is able to     provide untrusted input to openjpeg's conversion/encoding functionality, they could cause an out-of-bounds     read. The highest impact of this flaw is to application availability. (CVE-2020-27845)

  - Integer Overflow in OpenJPEG v2.4.0 allows remote attackers to crash the application, causing a Denial of     Service (DoS). This occurs when the attacker uses the command line option -ImgDir on a directory that     contains 1048576 files. (CVE-2021-29338)

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

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:1252-1 advisory.

  - 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)

  - An issue was discovered in OpenJPEG 2.3.0. Missing checks for header_info.height and header_info.width in     the function pnmtoimage in bin/jpwl/convert.c can lead to a heap-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2018-16375)

  - An issue was discovered in OpenJPEG 2.3.0. A heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in the function     t2_encode_packet in lib/openmj2/t2.c. The vulnerability causes an out-of-bounds write, which may lead to     remote denial of service or possibly unspecified other impact. (CVE-2018-16376)

  - Division-by-zero vulnerabilities in the functions pi_next_pcrl, pi_next_cprl, and pi_next_rpcl in     openmj2/pi.c in OpenJPEG through 2.3.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application     crash). (CVE-2018-20845)

  - In OpenJPEG 2.3.0, there is an integer overflow vulnerability 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-2018-5727)

  - In OpenJPEG 2.3.0, there is an integer overflow caused by an out-of-bounds left shift in the     opj_j2k_setup_encoder function (openjp2/j2k.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to     cause a denial of service via a crafted bmp file. (CVE-2018-5785)

  - In OpenJPEG 2.3.0, there is excessive iteration in the opj_t1_encode_cblks function of openjp2/t1.c.
    Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted bmp file.
    (CVE-2018-6616)

  - jp2/opj_decompress.c in OpenJPEG through 2.3.1 has a use-after-free that can be triggered if there is a     mix of valid and invalid files in a directory operated on by the decompressor. Triggering a double-free     may also be possible. This is related to calling opj_image_destroy twice. (CVE-2020-15389)

  - OpenJPEG through 2.3.1 has a heap-based buffer overflow in opj_t1_clbl_decode_processor in openjp2/t1.c     because of lack of opj_j2k_update_image_dimensions validation. (CVE-2020-6851)

  - opj_t1_clbl_decode_processor in openjp2/t1.c in OpenJPEG 2.3.1 through 2020-01-28 has a heap-based buffer     overflow in the qmfbid==1 case, a different issue than CVE-2020-6851. (CVE-2020-8112)

  - Integer Overflow in OpenJPEG v2.4.0 allows remote attackers to crash the application, causing a Denial of     Service (DoS). This occurs when the attacker uses the command line option -ImgDir on a directory that     contains 1048576 files. (CVE-2021-29338)

  - 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)
