NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libjpeg-turbo package and not the libjpeg-turbo package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the get_sos function in jdmarker.c in libjpeg-turbo 1.2.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a large component count in the header of a JPEG image.
