AcademySoftwareFoundation.openexr is vulnerable to Denial of Service
55
Medium Risk
OpenEXRCore's planar HTJ2K decoder computes a decode loop endpoint by adding an unsigned image height to a signed chunk origin. For a file with a negative data-window Y origin and vertical subsampling, the mixed arithmetic converts the negative origin to a large unsigned value, so the loop endpoint wraps to a very large positive number. The decoder then keeps requesting component rows far past the declared image and stays CPU-bound until externally terminated. The fix computes the loop endpoint entirely in signed 64-bit arithmetic.
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and you decode untrusted HTJ2K-compressed EXR files.
AcademySoftwareFoundation.openexr is vulnerable to Denial of Service in versions 3.4.0 - 3.4.13.
