NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python3-Pillow package and not the python3-Pillow package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Pillow is a Python imaging library. From 8.2.0 through 12.2.0, src/libImaging/Jpeg2KDecode.c accumulates total_component_width across every tile in a JPEG2000 image instead of recomputing it per tile, allowing a crafted tiled JPEG2000 file to force substantially higher transient memory usage and trigger out-of-memory failures during decoding. This issue is fixed in version 12.3.0.
