CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Centos:6 openjpeg to version 0:1.3-8.el6_3 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openjpeg package and not the openjpeg package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

The tcd_free_encode function in tcd.c in OpenJPEG 1.3 through 1.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted tile information in a Gray16 TIFF image, which causes insufficient memory to be allocated and leads to an "invalid free."
