OpenJPEG: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code

OpenJPEG: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code A vulnerability in OpenJPEG could result in execution of arbitrary code. OpenJPEG 2012-06-21 2012-06-21 409203 remote 1.5.0 1.5.0

OpenJPEG is an open-source JPEG 2000 library.

An error in jp2.c of OpenJPEG could allow an out-of-bounds write error.

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.

There is no known workaround at this time.

All OpenJPEG users should upgrade to the latest version:


      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/openjpeg-1.5.0"
