CVE-2012-2806
Heap-based buffer overflow in the get_sos function in jdmarker.c in libjpeg-turbo 1.2.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a large component count in the header of a JPEG image.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.76%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
