SCA: security update for Pillow (GHSA-c6hw-5grf-ff96)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 476407

Description

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

 - Pillow is a Python imaging library. From 8.1.0 until 13.0.0, Pillow's TIFF tile and RGBA decode paths can
 read beyond row data produced by libtiff. In _decodeTile and the RGBA unpacker path, when Pillow and
 libtiff interpret duplicated PhotometricInterpretation or BitsPerSample tags differently, Pillow does not
 verify that the required input row fits inside the row libtiff produced, while the strip path has this
 validation. Loading pixels from such a crafted TIFF can expose adjacent heap data in output pixels or
 crash the process. This issue is fixed in version 13.0.0. (CVE-2026-112404)

Solution

Update the Pillow library and its related packages to version 13.0.0 or later.
