Pillow · Pillow · CVE-2022-45198
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Pillow versions prior to 9.2.0
**Description**
The issue is related to improper handling of highly compressed GIF data, which can lead to data amplification. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to perform a denial-of-service (DoS) attack using a specially crafted GIF file.
**Recommendations**
For Pillow versions prior to 9.2.0, update to version 9.2.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of highly compressed GIF data until the update is applied.
