"The jpc_qcx_getcompparms function in jpc/jpc_cs.c for the JasPer JPEG-2000
library (libjasper) before 1.900 allows remote user-assisted attackers to cause
a denial of service (crash) and possibly corrupt the heap via malformed image
files, as originally demonstrated using imagemagick convert."

Appears to affect 1.900.1 too.
