NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python313-Pillow package and not the python313-Pillow package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:16.0.0 relevant fixed versions and status.

Pillow is a Python imaging library. From 5.2.0 until 12.3.0, Pillow's TGA RLE encoder reads past its packed row buffer when saving a mode 1 image with TGA RLE compression, allowing adjacent process heap bytes to be copied into the generated TGA file. This issue is fixed in version 12.3.0.
