+Subject: [PATCH] opj_jp2_read_header: Check for error after parsing header.
+
+Consider the case where the caller has not set the p_image
+pointer to NULL before calling opj_read_header().
+
+If opj_j2k_read_header_procedure() fails while obtaining the rest
+of the marker segment when calling opj_stream_read_data() because
+the data stream is too short, then opj_j2k_read_header() will
+never have the chance to initialize p_image, leaving it
+uninitialized.
+
+opj_jp2_read_header() will check the p_image value whether
+opj_j2k_read_header() suceeded or failed. This may be detected as
+an error in valgrind or ASAN.
+
+The fix is to check whether opj_j2k_read_header() suceeded before
+using the output argument p_image.
+
+CVE: CVE-2025-54874
