CVE-2016-7163
HighSummary
Integer overflow in the opj_pi_create_decode function in pi.c in OpenJPEG allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted JP2 file, which triggers an out-of-bounds read or write.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code remotely, posing a serious threat to the integrity and confidentiality of the system.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update OpenJPEG to the latest version to mitigate this vulnerability and to monitor systems for suspicious activity.
