OpenJPEG 2.3.0 has a NULL pointer dereference for "red" in the imagetopnm function of jp2/convert.c

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5664-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that OpenJPEG did not properly handle PNM headers, resulting in a null pointer     dereference. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service (DoS).
    (CVE-2016-7445)

    It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled certain image files resulting in division by zero.

    A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service (DoS). (CVE-2016-9112 and     CVE-2016-10506)

    It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled converting certain image files resulting in a stack     buffer overflow. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service (DoS).
    (CVE-2017-17479)

    It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled converting PNM image files resulting in a null pointer     dereference. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service (DoS).
    (CVE-2018-18088)

    It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled converting DWT images files resulting in a buffer     overflow. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service (DoS).
    (CVE-2020-27824)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to the versions of the openjpeg2 package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - OpenJPEG 2.3.0 has a NULL pointer dereference for 'red' in the imagetopnm function of jp2/convert.c     (CVE-2018-18088)

  - Division-by-zero vulnerabilities in the functions pi_next_pcrl, pi_next_cprl, and pi_next_rpcl in     openmj2/pi.c in OpenJPEG through 2.3.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application     crash). (CVE-2018-20845)

  - In OpenJPEG 2.3.0, there is an integer overflow vulnerability in the opj_t1_encode_cblks function     (openjp2/t1.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a     crafted bmp file. (CVE-2018-5727)

  - In OpenJPEG 2.3.1, there is excessive iteration in the opj_t1_encode_cblks function of openjp2/t1.c.
    Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted bmp file.
    This issue is similar to CVE-2018-6616. (CVE-2019-12973)

  - A flaw was found in the opj2_decompress program in openjpeg2 2.4.0 in the way it handles an input     directory with a large number of files. When it fails to allocate a buffer to store the filenames of the     input directory, it calls free() on an uninitialized pointer, leading to a segmentation fault and a denial     of service. (CVE-2022-1122)

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in openjpeg2, the open-source JPEG 2000 codec.

CVE-2017-17480

Write stack-based buffer overflow due to missing buffer length formatter in fscanf call (jp3d and jpwl codecs). This vulnerability might be leveraged by remote attackers using crafted jp3d and jpwl files to cause denial of service or possibly remote code execution.

CVE-2018-18088

NULL pointer dereference caused by null image components in imagetopnm. This vulnerability might be leveraged by remote attackers using crafted BMP files to cause denial of service.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 2.1.0-2+deb8u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your openjpeg2 packages.
