OpenEXR provides the specification and reference implementation of the EXR file format, an image storage format for the motion picture industry. From 3.4.0 to before 3.4.9, a missing bounds check on the dataWindow attribute in EXR file headers allows an attacker to trigger a signed integer overflow in generic_unpack(). By setting dataWindow.min.x to a large negative value, OpenEXRCore computes an enormous image width, which is later used in a signed integer multiplication that overflows, causing the process to terminate with SIGILL via UBSan. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.4.9.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2026-1612 advisory.

    OpenEXR provides the specification and reference implementation of the EXR file format, an image storage     format for the motion picture industry. From 3.2.0 to before 3.2.7, 3.3.9, and 3.4.9, a signed integer     overflow exists in undo_pxr24_impl() in src/lib/OpenEXRCore/internal_pxr24.c at line 377. The expression     (uint64_t)(w * 3) computes w * 3 as a signed 32-bit integer before casting to uint64_t. When w is large,     this multiplication constitutes undefined behavior under the C standard. On tested builds (clang/gcc     without sanitizers), two's-complement wraparound commonly occurs, and for specific values of w the wrapped     result is a small positive integer, which may allow the subsequent bounds check to pass incorrectly. If     the check is bypassed, the decoding loop proceeds to write pixel data through dout, potentially extending     far beyond the allocated output buffer. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.2.7, 3.3.9, and 3.4.9.
    (CVE-2026-34380)

    OpenEXR provides the specification and reference implementation of the EXR file format, an image storage     format for the motion picture industry. From 3.1.0 to before 3.2.7, 3.3.9, and 3.4.9,     internal_exr_undo_piz() advances the working wavelet pointer with signed 32-bit arithmetic. Because nx,     ny, and wcount are int, a crafted EXR file can make this product overflow and wrap. The next channel then     decodes from an incorrect address. The wavelet decode path operates in place, so this yields both out-of-     bounds reads and out-of-bounds writes. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.2.7, 3.3.9, and 3.4.9.
