Security Fix(es):

* Multiple integer overflow flaws, leading to heap-based buffer overflows,
were found in OpenJPEG. A specially crafted JPEG2000 image could cause an
application using OpenJPEG to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2016-5139, CVE-2016-5158, CVE-2016-5159, CVE-2016-7163)

* An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in OpenJPEG, in the
j2k_to_image tool. Converting a specially crafted JPEG2000 file to another
format could cause the application to crash or, potentially, disclose some
data from the heap. (CVE-2016-9573)

* A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in OpenJPEG. A
specially crafted JPEG2000 image, when read by an application using
OpenJPEG, could cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-9675)
