Summary
A vulnerability has been identified in JT Utilities (All versions < V13.0.2.0). When parsing specially crafted JT files, a race condition could cause an object to be released before being operated on, leading to NULL pointer deference condition and causing the application to crash. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to cause a Denial-of-Service condition in the application.
