NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libjpeg package and not the libjpeg package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

libjpeg 1.63 has a heap-based buffer over-read in HierarchicalBitmapRequester::FetchRegion in hierarchicalbitmaprequester.cpp because the MCU size can be different between allocation and use.
