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.

There are lots of memory leaks in JasPer 2.0.12, triggered in the function jas_strdup() in base/jas_string.c, that will lead to a remote denial of service attack.
