Summary
An issue has been found in JasPer 2.0.14. There is a memory leak in jas_malloc.c when called from jpc_unk_getparms in jpc_cs.c.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could supply a malicious image file, causing a memory leak and eventually denial of service (DoS) in applications using JasPer. This may lead to system instability and service interruptions.
Recommendation
Update JasPer to the latest version containing the fix. Monitor memory usage in applications processing JPEG-2000 images.
