SCA: security update for psd-tools (GHSA-24p2-j2jr-386w)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 438098

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - psd-tools is a Python package for working with Adobe Photoshop PSD files. Prior to version 1.12.2, when a
 PSD file contains malformed RLE-compressed image data (e.g. a literal run that extends past the expected
 row size), decode_rle() raises ValueError which propagated all the way to the user, crashing
 psd.composite() and psd-tools export. decompress() already had a fallback that replaces failed channels
 with black pixels when result is None, but it never triggered because the ValueError from decode_rle() was
 not caught. The fix in version 1.12.2 wraps the decode_rle() call in a try/except so the existing fallback
 handles the error gracefully. (CVE-2026-27809)
