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.

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

  - convert.c in OpenJPEG before 2.1.2 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and application crash) via vectors     involving the variable s.(CVE-2016-7445)

  - 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)

  - Division-by-zero vulnerabilities in the functions     opj_pi_next_cprl, opj_pi_next_pcrl, and     opj_pi_next_rpcl in pi.c in OpenJPEG before 2.2.0 allow     remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (application crash) via crafted j2k     files.(CVE-2016-10506)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4782-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that OpenJPEG incorrectly handled certain image files. A remote attacker could possibly     use this issue to cause a denial of service. CVE-2016-10506 and CVE-2017-12982 affected only Ubuntu 16.04     ESM. CVE-2018-16375, CVE-2018-20845 and CVE-2019-12973 affected only Ubuntu 18.04 ESM.

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.

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.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Division-by-zero vulnerabilities in the functions opj_pi_next_cprl, opj_pi_next_pcrl, and opj_pi_next_rpcl     in pi.c in OpenJPEG before 2.2.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash)     via crafted j2k files. (CVE-2016-10506)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
