Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in openjpeg :

OpenJPEG allocated insufficient memory when encoding JPEG 2000 files from input images that have certain color depths. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted image file that, when opened in an application linked against OpenJPEG (such as image_to_j2k), would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2009-5030).

An input validation flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way OpenJPEG handled the tile number and size in an image tile header. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted image file that, when decoded using an application linked against OpenJPEG, would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2012-3358).

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

- CVE-2009-5030     Heap memory corruption leading to invalid free when     processing certain Gray16 TIFF images.

  - CVE-2012-3358     Huzaifa Sidhpurwala of the Red Hat Security Response     Team found a heap-based buffer overflow in JPEG2000     image parsing.

  - CVE-2012-3535     Huzaifa Sidhpurwala of the Red Hat Security Response     Team found a heap-based buffer overflow when decoding     JPEG2000 images.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201310-07 (OpenJPEG: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

    OpenJPEG contains an invalid free error and multiple buffer overflow       flaws. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted JPEG       file, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of       Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

CVE-2012-3358 openjpeg: heap-based buffer overflow when processing JPEG2000 image files

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

Updated openjpeg packages fix security vulnerability :

An out-of heap-based buffer bounds read and write flaw, leading to invalid free, was found in the way a tile coder / decoder (TCD) implementation of OpenJPEG, an open source JPEG 2000 codec written in C language, performed releasing of previously allocated memory for the TCD encoder handle by processing certain Gray16 TIFF images. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted TIFF image file, which once converted into the JPEG 2000 file format with an application linked against OpenJPEG (such as 'image_to_j2k'), would lead to that application crash, or, potentially arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2009-5030).

A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted image file that, when decoded using an application linked against OpenJPEG, would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application (CVE-2012-3358).

It was found that OpenJPEG failed to sanity-check an image header field before using it. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted image file that could cause an application linked against OpenJPEG to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code (CVE-2012-3535).
