Medium

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions OpenEXR versions prior to 3.0.5
Description The issue is related to a flaw in OpenEXR's ImfDeepScanLineInputFile functionality. This flaw can cause an out-of-bounds read when a crafted file is submitted to an application linked with OpenEXR. The greatest risk from this flaw is to application availability. An attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service.
Recommendations For versions prior to 3.0.5, update to version 3.0.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the submission of crafted files to applications linked with OpenEXR to minimize the risk of exploitation.
