External References: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=25913 Flaw summary: OpenEXR/IlmImf/ImfB44Compressor.cpp used a temporary buffer _tmpBuffer. Allocation of this buffer was twice the size necessary. This could lead to out-of-memory errors and a denial of service. Upstream patch commit: https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openexr/commit/85fd638ae0d5fa132434f4cbf32590261c1dba97 Created OpenEXR tracking bugs for this issue: Affects: fedora-all [bug 1944455] |
