Echo: openexr: security update to 3.1.13-2

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 472858

Description

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

 - OpenEXR is the reference implementation and specification for the EXR image format, widely used in the
 motion picture industry. OpenEXR versions 3.3.0 through 3.3.12 and 3.4.0 through 3.4.13 are vulnerable to
 a heap out-of-bounds write when exrmetrics reads a crafted deep scanline EXR. This occurs with pixel
 conversion options such as --pixelmode float or --bench because DeepSlice requests FLOAT output while the
 backing sample buffers are allocated using the input HALF element size. The issue is fixed in versions
 3.3.13 and 3.4.14. (CVE-2026-59187)

Solution

Update the openexr library and its related packages to version 3.1.13-2 or later.
