Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenJPEG, a JPEG 2000 image library, that may lead to denial of service (CVE-2013-1447) via application crash or high memory consumption, possible code execution through heap buffer overflows (CVE-2013-6045), information disclosure (CVE-2013-6052), or yet another heap buffer overflow that only appears to affect OpenJPEG 1.3 (CVE-2013-6054 ).

For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 1.3+dfsg-4+squeeze2. For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in version 1.3+dfsg-4.7. For the testing distribution (jessie), and the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your openjpeg packages.

Libopenjpeg2 is a library for handling the JPEG 2000 image compression format.
