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.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - openjpeg: Stack-buffer overflow in the pgxtoimage function (CVE-2017-17479)

  - OpenJPEG 1.5.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors that trigger     NULL pointer dereferences, division-by-zero, and other errors. (CVE-2013-6887)

  - Heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the opj_mqc_byteout function in mqc.c in OpenJPEG before 2.2.0     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted bmp file.
    (CVE-2016-10504)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - openjpeg: Stack-buffer overflow in the pgxtoimage function (CVE-2017-17479)

  - Heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the opj_mqc_byteout function in mqc.c in OpenJPEG before 2.2.0     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted bmp file.
    (CVE-2016-10504)

  - NULL pointer dereference vulnerabilities in the imagetopnm function in convert.c, sycc444_to_rgb function     in color.c, color_esycc_to_rgb function in color.c, and sycc422_to_rgb function in color.c in OpenJPEG     before 2.2.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via crafted j2k     files. (CVE-2016-10505)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201710-26 (OpenJPEG: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenJPEG. Please review       the references below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker, via a crafted BMP, PDF, or j2k document, could       execute arbitrary code, cause a Denial of Service condition, or have       other unspecified impacts.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

This update for openjpeg2 fixes several issues.

These security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2016-10507: Integer overflow vulnerability in the     bmp24toimage function allowed remote attackers to cause     a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and     application crash) via a crafted bmp file (bsc#1056421).

  - CVE-2017-14039: A heap-based buffer overflow was     discovered in the opj_t2_encode_packet function. The     vulnerability caused an out-of-bounds write, which may     have lead to remote denial of service or possibly     unspecified other impact (bsc#1056622).

  - CVE-2017-14164: A size-validation issue was discovered     in opj_j2k_write_sot. The vulnerability caused an     out-of-bounds write, which may have lead to remote DoS     or possibly remote code execution (bsc#1057511).

  - CVE-2017-14040: An invalid write access was discovered     in bin/jp2/convert.c, triggering a crash in the     tgatoimage function. The vulnerability may have lead to     remote denial of service or possibly unspecified other     impact (bsc#1056621).

  - CVE-2017-14041: A stack-based buffer overflow was     discovered in the pgxtoimage function. The vulnerability     caused an out-of-bounds write, which may have lead to     remote denial of service or possibly remote code     execution (bsc#1056562).

This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12-SP2:Update update project.

New openjpeg packages are available for Slackware 14.2 and -current to fix security issues.
