CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe OpenEXR library, used for handling the EXR image format in the motion picture industry, is vulnerable to a heap out-of-bounds write when processing specially crafted tiled EXR files in specific versions prior to 3.2.11, 3.3.13, and 3.4.14. This vulnerability can lead to potential memory corruption, which may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code or crash applications. Organizations utilizing affected versions of OpenEXR, particularly in media production environments, should prioritize upgrading to the patched versions to mitigate this risk.

Original NVD Description
OpenEXR is the reference implementation and specification for the EXR image format, widely used in the motion picture industry. In versions before 3.2.11, 3.3.0 through 3.3.12, and 3.4.0 through 3.4.13, a crafted tiled EXR can trigger a heap out-of-bounds write on 32-bit/ILP32 builds when read through the public TiledRgbaInputFile RGBA API. The file uses a small 40x40 dataWindow but a 65537x65537 tile size. On ILP32, the Array2D<Rgba> tile-conversion buffer size calculation overflows, allocates a much smaller heap buffer, and tile decode writes past that allocation. This issue is fixed in versions 3.2.11, 3.3.13, and 3.4.14.
