jasper vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
– Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
– Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in JasPer.
Software Description:
– jasper: Library for manipulating JPEG-2000 files
Details:
It was discovered that JasPer incorrectly handled certain malformed
JPEG-2000 image files. If a user or automated system using JasPer were
tricked into opening a specially crafted image, an attacker could exploit
this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute code with the
privileges of the user invoking the program.
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS:
libjasper1 1.900.1-debian1-2.4ubuntu1.1
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:
libjasper1 1.900.1-14ubuntu3.4
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
