CVE-2016-9591
      Use-after-free on heap in jas_matrix_destroy
      The vulnerability exists in code responsible for re-encoding the
      decoded input image file to a JP2 image. The vulnerability is
      caused by not setting related pointers to be null after the
      pointers are freed (i.e. missing Setting-Pointer-Null operations
      after free). The vulnerability can further cause double-free.

      Integer overflow in the jpc_pi_nextcprl function in jpc_t2cod.c in
      JasPer before 1.900.20 allows remote attackers to have unspecified
      impact via a crafted file, which triggers use of an uninitialized
      value.
