CVE-2009-5030 openjpeg: Heap memory corruption leading to invalid free by processing certain Gray16 TIFF images

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812317
"""
An out-of heap-based buffer bounds read and write flaw, leading to invalid
free, was found in the way a tile coder / decoder (TCD) implementation of
OpenJPEG, an open-source JPEG 2000 codec written in C language, performed
releasing of previously allocated memory for the TCD encoder handle by
processing certain Gray16 TIFF images. A remote attacker could provide a
specially-crafted TIFF image file, which once converted into the JPEG 2000 file
format with an application linked against OpenJPEG (such as 'image_to_j2k'),
would lead to that application crash, or, potentially arbitrary code execution
with the privileges of the user running the application.
