How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 jasper-utils.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jasper-utils package and not the jasper-utils package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The jas_malloc function in libjasper/base/jas_malloc.c in JasPer before 1.900.11 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a crafted file, which triggers a memory allocation failure.
