3. Description:

OpenJPEG is an open source library for reading and writing image files in
JPEG 2000 format.

It was found that OpenJPEG failed to sanity-check an image header field
before using it. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted image
file that could cause an application linked against OpenJPEG to crash or,
possibly, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2012-3535)

This issue was discovered by Huzaifa Sidhpurwala of the Red Hat Security
Response Team.

Users of OpenJPEG should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
a patch to correct this issue. All running applications using OpenJPEG
must be restarted for the update to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
