Nothing. This is a problem in the way Photoshop does store CMYK JPEG.
I was told this comes from a mistake by a junior programmer in early
versions of Photoshop. For compatibility sake Adobe has kept this
particular encoding!

There is workaround, however. You can find the patched files for
jpeglib at http://www.littlecms.com/newutils.htm#jpegicc

http://www.littlecms.com/jccolor.c
http://www.littlecms.com/jdcolor.c

The precompiled windows exe is already using these ones

http://www.littlecms.com/jpegicc.exe

Hope this helps
