Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions openjpeg versions prior to 2.4.0

Description The issue is related to an out-of-bounds read in the src/lib/openjp2/pi.c component of the openjpeg library. This occurs when an attacker provides crafted input to be processed by the openjpeg encoder. The greatest impact from this flaw is to application availability, potentially allowing a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.4.0, update to version 2.4.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the input to the openjpeg encoder to prevent crafted data from being processed.
