NVD Description

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

A flaw was found in OpenEXR in versions before 3.0.0-beta. A crafted input file supplied by an attacker, that is processed by the Dwa decompression functionality of OpenEXR's IlmImf library, could cause a NULL pointer dereference. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
