A new double free affecting JasPer JPEG-2000 (libjasper 1.900) has

library is used by many programs (

providing support, so there is no fix so far.

If you email me your crasher I can look into a fix.

Last time I ran zzuf on jasper there were plenty of crashes and bugs
that triggered a high resource consumption - pretty much like the ones
I found on openjpeg at work. They looked less severe, however.

I should still have some samples in another machine, if anyone is
interested in taking a look at those and/or using them as a base for
further fuzzing.
