Pillow is a Python imaging library. From version 10.3.0 to before version 12.2.0, processing a malicious PSD file could lead to memory corruption, potentially resulting in a crash or arbitrary code execution. This issue has been patched in version 12.2.0.

According to the versions of the python-pillow packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

    Pillow is a Python imaging library. Prior to version 12.2.0, if a font advances for each glyph by an     exceeding large amount, when Pillow keeps track of the current position, it may lead to an integer     overflow. This issue has been patched in version 12.2.0.(CVE-2026-42308)

    Pillow is a Python imaging library. From version 4.2.0 to before version 12.2.0, an attacker can supply a     malicious PDF that causes the process to hang indefinitely, consuming 100% CPU and making the application     unresponsive. This issue has been patched in version 12.2.0.(CVE-2026-42310)

    Multiple security vulnerabilities have been discovered in Pillow, a     Python imaging library, which could result in denial of service or the     execution of arbitrary code if malformed files are processed.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in     version 11.1.0-5+deb13u3.

    We recommend that you upgrade your pillow packages.
