Description

A size-validation issue was discovered in opj_j2k_write_sot in lib/openjp2/j2k.c in OpenJPEG 2.2.0. The vulnerability causes an out-of-bounds write, which may lead to remote denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow affecting opj_write_bytes_LE in lib/openjp2/cio.c) or possibly remote code execution. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-14152.

Techniques & Countermeasures

  • CWE-119•Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer

This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.

  • CWE-787•Out-of-bounds Write

    The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
