Summary
openjpeg2 vulnerabilities
Details

It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled certain memory operations when using the command line "-ImgDir" in a directory with a large number of files, leading to an integer overflow vulnerability. An attacker could potentially use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2021-29338)

It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled decompressing certain .j2k files in sycc420_to_rgb, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-3575)

It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled certain memory operations in the opj2_decompress program. An attacker could potentially use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. (CVE-2022-1122)
