{"answers":{"affected":"4 open source packages ship an affected version, including pillow and Pillow.

Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-96644/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-96644/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-96644","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-96644/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-96644","record":{"aliases":["BIT-pillow-2026-96644","CLSA-2026-1793189478","ECHO-5bbc-7f9f-d028","GHSA-9v9v-9qvf-h2hj","PYSEC-2026-4343","ROOT-APP-PYPI-CVE-2026-96644","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-96644"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"pillow","vendor":"python"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:L/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"Pillow is a Python imaging library. Prior to 13.0.0 on Windows, src/PIL/WmfImagePlugin.py passes unchecked 32-bit WMF or EMF dimensions to the native drawwmf handler in src/display.c. The handler sizes a DIB allocation from 16-bit-truncated bcWidth and bcHeight fields but copies pixel data using the original full dimensions. A crafted wide, short metafile can pass the pixel-count decompression-bomb check and make the Windows-only renderer read beyond the heap buffer, potentially disclosing memory or crashing the process.
