How to fix?

Upgrade Chainguard py3-pytorch-cuda-13.0 to version 2.14.1-r2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream py3-pytorch-cuda-13.0 package and not the py3-pytorch-cuda-13.0 package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

Pillow is a Python imaging library. Prior to 13.0.0, the TarIO initializer in src/PIL/TarIO.py accepts a negative octal member size and computes a backward seek that returns to the same 512-byte header. When the requested member name does not match, the parser repeatedly reads that header, consumes a full CPU core, and never returns. TarIO is reached only when an application directly uses PIL.TarIO.TarIO rather than the default Image.open() path. This issue is fixed in version 13.0.0.
