It was discovered that Libjpeg6b was not properly performing bounds checks when compressing PPM and Targa image files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2018-11212) Chijin Zhou discovered that Libjpeg6b was incorrectly handling the EOF character in input data when generating JPEG files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to force the execution of a large loop, force excessive memory consumption, and cause a denial of service. (CVE-2018-11813) Sheng Shu and Dongdong She discovered that Libjpeg6b was not properly limiting the amount of memory being used when it was performing decompression or multi-pass compression operations. An attacker could possibly use this issue to force excessive memory consumption and cause a denial of service. (CVE-2020-14152)

The libjpeg package contains a library of functions for manipulating JPEGimages. It also contains simple client programs for accessing thelibjpeg functions.An uninitialized memory read issue was found in the way libjpeg decodedimages with missing Start Of Scan (SOS) JPEG markers. A remote attackercould create a specially crafted JPEG image that, when decoded, couldpossibly lead to a disclosure of potentially sensitive information.(CVE-2013-6629)All libjpeg users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, whichcontains a backported patch to correct this issue.
