Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9118)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform service disruption.

Heap Buffer Overflow (WRITE of size 4) in function pnmtoimage of convert.c:1719 in OpenJPEG 2.1.2.


2) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9117)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

NULL Pointer Access in function imagetopnm of convert.c(jp2):1289 in OpenJPEG 2.1.2. Impact is Denial of Service. Someone must open a crafted j2k file.


3) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9116)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

NULL Pointer Access in function imagetopnm of convert.c:2226(jp2) in OpenJPEG 2.1.2. Impact is Denial of Service. Someone must open a crafted j2k file.


4) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9115)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

Heap Buffer Over-read in function imagetotga of convert.c(jp2):942 in OpenJPEG 2.1.2. Impact is Denial of Service. Someone must open a crafted j2k file.


5) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9114)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

There is a NULL Pointer Access in function imagetopnm of convert.c:1943(jp2) of OpenJPEG 2.1.2. image->comps[compno].data is not assigned a value after initialization(NULL). Impact is Denial of Service.


6) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9113)

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 function imagetobmp of convertbmp.c:980 of OpenJPEG 2.1.2. image->comps[0].data is not assigned a value after initialization(NULL). Impact is Denial of Service. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9112)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
