CVE-2017-17479

In OpenJPEG 2.3.0, a stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in the pgxtoimage function in jpwl/convert.c. The vulnerability causes an out-of-bounds write, which may lead to remote denial of service or possibly remote code execution.

A stack-based buffer overflow in the pgxtoimage function in jpwl/convert.c could crash the converter (CVE-2017-17479).

A stack-based buffer overflow in the pgxtovolume function in jp3d/convert.c could crash the converter (CVE-2017-17480).

A flaw was found in OpenJPEG 2.3.0, there is an integer overflow caused by an out-of-bounds left shift in the opj_j2k_setup_encoder function (openjp2/j2k.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted bmp file (CVE-2018-5785).

In OpenJPEG 2.3.0, there is excessive iteration in the opj_t1_encode_cblks function of openjp2/t1.c. Attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted bmp file (CVE-2018-6616).

A flaw was found in OpenJPEG 2.3.0. A NULL pointer dereference for "red" in the imagetopnm function of jp2/convert.c (CVE-2018-18088).

Root has patched CVE-2017-17479 in the openjpeg2 package for Root:Debian:12. Multiple fixed versions available.

This update for openjpeg2 fixes the following security issues:

• CVE-2015-1239: A double free vulnerability in the j2k_read_ppm_v3 function allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) (bsc#1066713)
• CVE-2017-17479: A stack-based buffer overflow in the pgxtoimage function in jpwl/convert.c could crash the converter. (bsc#1072125)
• CVE-2017-17480: A stack-based buffer overflow in the pgxtovolume function in jp3d/convert.c could crash the converter. (bsc#1072124)

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)
