NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream OpenEXR-debugsource package and not the OpenEXR-debugsource package as distributed by Centos.

A heap-buffer overflow was found in the copyIntoFrameBuffer function of OpenEXR in versions before 3.0.1. An attacker could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the application compiled against OpenEXR.
