Summary

OpenEXR versions 3.1.0 through 3.2.10, 3.3.0 through 3.3.12, and 3.4.0 through 3.4.13 are vulnerable on ILP32 builds to an out-of-bounds write. When a crafted B44-compressed scanline EXR causes the logical scratch size to truncate before allocation and uncompress_b44_impl() writes using the attacker-controlled channel width, allowing denial of service and memory corruption. This issue is fixed in versions 3.2.11, 3.3.13, and 3.4.14.

Risk Assessment

The risk includes potential application crashes or memory corruption, which could lead to denial of service and potential system compromise.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update OpenEXR to versions 3.2.11, 3.3.13, or 3.4.14, which contain the fix.
