CVE-2016-10250
The jp2_colr_destroy function in jp2_cod.c in JasPer before 1.900.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) by leveraging incorrect cleanup of JP2 box data on error.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.98%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
