jpegoptim.c in jpegoptim 1.4.5 (fixed in 1.4.6) has an invalid use of realloc() and free(), which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact.

Weakness

The product calls free() twice on the same memory address, potentially leading to modification of unexpected memory locations.
