CVE-2016-2116 [MEDIUM] CVE-2016-2116 jasper: memory leak in jas_iccprof_createfrombuf()
CVE-2016-2116 jasper: memory leak in jas_iccprof_createfrombuf()
Memory leak in jas_iccprof_createfrombuf function in JasPer 1.900.1 and earlier was found, allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted ICC color profile in a JPEG 2000 image file.
Vulnerable code:
src/libjasper/base/jas_icc.c:
1685 jas_iccprof_t *jas_iccprof_createfrombuf(uchar *buf, int len)
1686 {
1687 jas_stream_t *in;
1688 jas_iccprof_t *prof;
1689 if (!(in = jas_stream_memopen(JAS_CAST(char *, buf), len)))
1690 goto error;
1691 if (!(prof = jas_iccprof_load(in)))
1692 goto error;
1693 jas_stream_close(in);
1694 return prof;
1695 error:
1696 return 0;
1697 }
jas_stream_t allocated by the call to jas_stream_memopen() is leaked if jas_iccprof_load() fails on line 1691.
