Vulnerability Vulnerable Version
  • H
Denial of Service (DoS)

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) when using arbitrary strings as text input and the number of characters passed into PIL.ImageFont.ImageFont.getmask() is over a certain limit. This can lead to a system crash.

How to fix Denial of Service (DoS)?

Upgrade pillow to version 10.2.0 or higher.

  • H
Denial of Service (DoS)

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) if the size of individual glyphs extends beyond the bitmap image, when using PIL.ImageFont.ImageFont function. Exploiting this vulnerability could lead to a system crash.

How to fix Denial of Service (DoS)?

Upgrade pillow to version 10.2.0 or higher.

  • H
Eval Injection

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Eval Injection via the PIL.ImageMath.eval function when an attacker has control over the keys passed to the environment argument.

How to fix Eval Injection?

Upgrade pillow to version 10.2.0 or higher.

  • H
Uncontrolled Resource Consumption ('Resource Exhaustion')

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncontrolled Resource Consumption ('Resource Exhaustion') when the ImageFont truetype in an ImageDraw instance operates on a long text argument. An attacker can cause the service to crash by processing a task that uncontrollably allocates memory.

How to fix Uncontrolled Resource Consumption ('Resource Exhaustion')?

Upgrade pillow to version 10.0.0 or higher.

  • C
Heap-based Buffer Overflow

Pillow is a PIL (Python Imaging Library) fork.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Heap-based Buffer Overflow when the ReadHuffmanCodes() function is used. An attacker can craft a special WebP lossless file that triggers the ReadHuffmanCodes() function to allocate the HuffmanCode buffer with a size that comes from an array of precomputed sizes: kTableSize. The color_cache_bits value defines which size to use. The kTableSize array only takes into account sizes for 8-bit first-level table lookups but not second-level table lookups. libwebp allows codes that are up to 15-bit (MAX_ALLOWED_CODE_LENGTH). When BuildHuffmanTable() attempts to fill the second-level tables it may write data out-of-bounds. The OOB write to the undersized array happens in ReplicateValue.

Notes:

This is only exploitable if the color_cache_bits value defines which size to use.

This vulnerability was also published on libwebp CVE-2023-5129
