SCA: security update for Pillow (GHSA-27h8-gf7j-v5hc)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 476604

Description

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

- Pillow is a Python imaging library. Prior to 13.0.0, Pillow's rank-based filters can dereference invalid
image storage for a zero-size image. ImagingExpand() allocates a non-empty output and then faults while
replicating edges by reading the first pixel from empty input storage; ImagingRankFilter is never reached.
An attacker can supply or cause creation of a zero-size image to an application that applies a rank,
median, minimum, or maximum filter. This causes a native process crash. This issue is fixed in version
13.0.0. (CVE-2026-112392)

Solution

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