Published: —Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

Pillow wheels from 11.1.0 onward bundle a libopenjp2 containing a heap-buffer-overflow write that is fixed upstream on master but has never appeared in an OpenJPEG release. Because the wheel bundles its own copy, a patched host library does not protect against the issue.

Risk Assessment

This can lead to memory corruption and potential code execution when processing crafted JPEG 2000 images.

Recommendation

Track Pillow and OpenJPEG updates; until a fix is released, consider avoiding processing of untrusted JPEG 2000 files or using the system OpenJPEG library.
