NVD Description

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

The jas_matrix_bindsub function in jas_seq.c in JasPer 2.0.10 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid read) via a crafted image.
