libjpeg commit 281daa9 was discovered to contain a segmentation fault via LineMerger::GetNextLowpassLine at linemerger.cpp. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted file.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
