I set out to apply the fix for CVE-2016-1867 to jasper and found that our package had many unpatched CVEs dating back to 2008 [0].
Most of these patches are copied from Fedora [1] but the patch for CVE-2016-1867 is copied from SUSE [2]. I copied one non-CVE patch from Fedora because the patch for CVE-2008-3520 builds on it. There are other non-CVE patches in the Fedora tree [1]. Do you think we should apply any of those as well?
