SCA: security update for Pillow (GHSA-65qm-jvmh-6pqg)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 476400

Description

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

- Pillow is a Python imaging library. From 9.2.0 until 13.0.0, Pillow can retain a rejected GIF frame size
after a decompression-bomb exception. In GifImageFile._seek, a crafted GIF can leave rejected dimensions
stored after Image.DecompressionBombError; if an application catches that exception and continues
processing the same image object, later seek or load operations allocate according to those dimensions and
can exhaust memory, denying service. This issue is fixed in version 13.0.0. (CVE-2026-112400)

Solution

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