<p>The JasPer Project is an open-source initiative to provide a free
software-based reference implementation of the codec specified in the
JPEG-2000 Part-1 (jpeg2k) standard.

<description>
<p>Two vulnerabilities have been found in JasPer:</p>
<ul>
<li>The jpc_cox_getcompparms function in libjasper/jpc/jpc_cs.c contains
an error that could overwrite certain callback pointers, possibly
causing a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2011-4516).
</li>
<li>The jpc_crg_getparms function in libjasper/jpc/jpc_cs.c uses an
incorrect data type, possibly causing a heap-based buffer overflow
(CVE-2011-4517).
</li>
</ul>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to process
specially crafted JPEG-2000 files with an application using JasPer,
possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges
of the application, or a Denial of Service.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
