Bug#675212: libjpeg-progs: Out of memory: Kill process 23549 (cjpeg) score 973 or sacrifice child

Package: libjpeg-progs
Version: 8b-1
Severity: normal


Looks like cjpeg does not handle large image. It fails with:

$ dmesg
[...]
[30479.166496] Out of memory: Kill process 23549 (cjpeg) score 973 or sacrifice child
[30479.166500] Killed process 23549 (cjpeg) total-vm:567775256kB, anon-rss:15702792kB, file-rss:116kB

When running:

$ cjpeg -progressive -arithmetic -rgb -block 1 -outfile huge1.jpg -quality 100 huge.ppm

where:

$ head -3 huge.ppm
P6
46000 32914
255

Would be nice to give up early instead or taking all the memory
