Description
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to read and write out-of-bounds memory.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in internal_exr_undo_piz() in the PIZ decoder when parsing a crafted EXR file. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted EXR file to read and write out-of-bounds memory.
The issue occurs during PIZ decompression because signed 32-bit arithmetic can wrap while advancing the working wavelet pointer, causing the next channel to decode from an incorrect address.
