It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-146 advisory.

    An issue was discovered in Pillow before 8.1.1. In TiffDecode.c, there is a negative-offset memcpy with an     invalid size. (CVE-2021-25290)

    An issue was discovered in Pillow before 8.1.1. In TiffDecode.c, there is an out-of-bounds read in     TiffreadRGBATile via invalid tile boundaries. (CVE-2021-25291)

    An issue was discovered in Pillow before 8.1.1. There is an out-of-bounds read in SGIRleDecode.c.
    (CVE-2021-25293)

    Pillow before 8.1.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) because the     reported size of a contained image is not properly checked for a BLP container, and thus an attempted     memory allocation can be very large. (CVE-2021-27921)

    Pillow before 8.1.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) because the     reported size of a contained image is not properly checked for an ICNS container, and thus an attempted     memory allocation can be very large. (CVE-2021-27922)

    Pillow before 8.1.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) because the     reported size of a contained image is not properly checked for an ICO container, and thus an attempted     memory allocation can be very large. (CVE-2021-27923)

    An issue was discovered in Pillow before 8.2.0. For FLI data, FliDecode did not properly check that the     block advance was non-zero, potentially leading to an infinite loop on load. (CVE-2021-28676)

    An issue was discovered in Pillow before 8.2.0. For EPS data, the readline implementation used in     EPSImageFile has to deal with any combination of \r and \n as line endings. It used an accidentally     quadratic method of accumulating lines while looking for a line ending. A malicious EPS file could use     this to perform a DoS of Pillow in the open phase, before an image was accepted for opening.
    (CVE-2021-28677)

    Pillow through 8.2.0 and PIL (aka Python Imaging Library) through 1.1.7 allow an attacker to pass     controlled parameters directly into a convert function to trigger a buffer overflow in Convert.c.
    (CVE-2021-34552)

    Pillow before 9.2.0 performs Improper Handling of Highly Compressed GIF Data (Data Amplification).
    (CVE-2022-45198)

    Pillow before 9.3.0 allows denial of service via SAMPLESPERPIXEL. (CVE-2022-45199)
