Updated jasper packages fix security vulnerabilities

Updated jasper packages fix security vulnerabilities:

A double free flaw was found in the way JasPer parsed ICC color profiles in JPEG 2000 image files. A specially crafted file could cause an application using JasPer to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code (CVE-2014-8137).

Security update for jasper

This update for jasper fixes the following security issues:

* 

  CVE-2014-8137: Double free in jas_iccattrval_destroy(). Double call
  to free() allowed attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly
  have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors. (bsc#909474)

* 

  CVE-2014-8138: Heap overflow in jas_decode(). This could be used to
  do an arbitrary write and could result in arbitrary code execution.
  (bsc#909475)

* 

  CVE-2014-8157: Off-by-one error in the jpc_dec_process_sot(). Could
  allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or
  possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted JPEG 2000 image, which
  triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. (bsc#911837)

* 

  CVE-2014-8158: Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in jpc_qmfb.c.
  Could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or
  possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted JPEG 2000 image.
