TL;DR

An empty multiView attribute in a crafted EXR file can make viewFromChannelName() crash while resolving channel-to-view mappings. Applications that open untrusted EXR files and exercise multi-view channel naming therefore suffer a denial of service. The fix rejects empty multiView attributes before view resolution.

Who does this affect?

You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and you open untrusted EXR files that can carry a multiView attribute.
