CVE-2007-2721  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 jasper to version 1.900.1-6 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jasper package and not the jasper package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

The jpc_qcx_getcompparms function in jpc/jpc_cs.c for the JasPer JPEG-2000 library (libjasper) before 1.900 allows remote user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly corrupt the heap via malformed image files, as originally demonstrated using imagemagick convert.
