How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:7 python-pillow-doc.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-pillow-doc package and not the python-pillow-doc package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Pillow before 8.1.2 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) because the reported size of a contained image is not properly checked for a BLP container, and thus an attempted memory allocation can be very large.
