AcademySoftwareFoundation.openexr is vulnerable to Information Disclosure

Low Risk
This Affects:
AcademySoftwareFoundation.openexrTL;DR
OpenEXRCore's DWAA/DWAB decoder accepts a valid but too-short DWA RLE raw stream for an RLE-classified channel. The decoder expands only the attacker-declared RLE_RAW_SIZE and then reconstructs the full channel from the planar buffer, copying uninitialized tail bytes into caller-visible pixels. The fix rejects undersized compressed or raw streams before reconstructing full channel rows.
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and you decode untrusted DWAA/DWAB-compressed EXR files.
