The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 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.

  - jasper: heap-based buffer over-read of size 8 in jas_image_depalettize in libjasper/base/jas_image.c     (CVE-2018-19541)

  - jasper: heap-based buffer over-read in jp2_decode() in jp2_dec.c (CVE-2018-19543)

  - Integer overflow in libjasper/jpc/jpc_dec.c in JasPer 1.900.17 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service (crash) via a crafted file. (CVE-2017-5499)

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

This plugin has been deprecated as it does not adhere to established standards for this style of check.

The version of jasper installed on the remote host is prior to 1.900.1-21.12. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS-2023-1733 advisory.

    A flaw was found in the Jasper tool's jpc encoder. This flaw allows an attacker to craft input provided to     Jasper, causing an arbitrary out-of-bounds write.  The highest threat from this vulnerability is to     confidentiality, integrity, as well as system availability. (CVE-2020-27828)

    A flaw was found in jasper before 2.0.25. A null pointer dereference in jp2_decode in jp2_dec.c may lead     to program crash and denial of service. (CVE-2021-26927)

    jp2_decode in jp2/jp2_dec.c in libjasper in JasPer 2.0.24 has a heap-based buffer over-read when there is     an invalid relationship between the number of channels and the number of image components. (CVE-2021-3272)

    A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way Jasper versions before 2.0.27 handled component     references in the JP2 image format decoder. A specially crafted JP2 image file could cause an application     using the Jasper library to crash when opened. (CVE-2021-3443)

    A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way Jasper versions before 2.0.26 handled component     references in CDEF box in the JP2 image format decoder. A specially crafted JP2 image file could cause an     application using the Jasper library to crash when opened. (CVE-2021-3467)
