Description
This security bulletin contains information about 11 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9572)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a NULL pointer dereference error in the way openjpeg 2.1.2 decoded certain input images. Due to a logic error in the code responsible for decoding the input image, an application using openjpeg to process image data could crash when processing a crafted image. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9573)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information or cause the service to crash.
The vulnerability exists in the j2k_to_image component due to due to a heap-based buffer overflow when the j2k_to_image tool handles red, green, blue, and alpha (RGBA) channel dimensions. A remote attacker can execute an application that submits malicious input, trigger out-of-bounds read and gain access to potentially sensitive information or cause the service to crash.
3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9580)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
An integer overflow vulnerability was found in tiftoimage function in openjpeg 2.1.2, resulting in heap buffer overflow.
4) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9581)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
An infinite loop vulnerability in tiftoimage that results in heap buffer overflow in convert_32s_C1P1 was found in openjpeg 2.1.2.
5) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-12982)
The vulnerability allows a local non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The bmp_read_info_header function in bin/jp2/convertbmp.c in OpenJPEG 2.2.0 does not reject headers with a zero biBitCount, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory allocation failure) in the opj_image_create function in lib/openjp2/image.c, related to the opj_aligned_alloc_n function in opj_malloc.c.
6) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14039)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
A heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in the opj_t2_encode_packet function in lib/openjp2/t2.c in OpenJPEG 2.2.0. The vulnerability causes an out-of-bounds write, which may lead to remote denial of service or possibly unspecified other impact.
7) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14040)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
An invalid write access was discovered in bin/jp2/convert.c in OpenJPEG 2.2.0, triggering a crash in the tgatoimage function. The vulnerability may lead to remote denial of service or possibly unspecified other impact.
8) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14041)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
A stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in the pgxtoimage function in bin/jp2/convert.c in OpenJPEG 2.2.0. The vulnerability causes an out-of-bounds write, which may lead to remote denial of service or possibly remote code execution.
9) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14151)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
An off-by-one error was discovered in opj_tcd_code_block_enc_allocate_data in lib/openjp2/tcd.c in OpenJPEG 2.2.0. The vulnerability causes an out-of-bounds write, which may lead to remote denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow affecting opj_mqc_flush in lib/openjp2/mqc.c and opj_t1_encode_cblk in lib/openjp2/t1.c) or possibly remote code execution.
10) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14152)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
A mishandled zero case was discovered in opj_j2k_set_cinema_parameters in lib/openjp2/j2k.c in OpenJPEG 2.2.0. The vulnerability causes an out-of-bounds write, which may lead to remote denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow affecting opj_write_bytes_LE in lib/openjp2/cio.c and opj_j2k_write_sot in lib/openjp2/j2k.c) or possibly remote code execution.
11) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2017-14164)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
A size-validation issue was discovered in opj_j2k_write_sot in lib/openjp2/j2k.c in OpenJPEG 2.2.0. The vulnerability causes an out-of-bounds write, which may lead to remote denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow affecting opj_write_bytes_LE in lib/openjp2/cio.c) or possibly remote code execution. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-14152.
