NVD Description

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

Integer overflow in the opj_pi_create_decode function in pi.c in OpenJPEG allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted JP2 file, which triggers an out-of-bounds read or write.
