CVE-2021-28678

An issue was discovered in Pillow before 8.2.0.

MEDIUM 5.5EPSS 0.73%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.73%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

An issue was discovered in Pillow before 8.2.0. For BLP data, BlpImagePlugin did not properly check that reads (after jumping to file offsets) returned data. This could lead to a DoS where the decoder could be run a large number of times on empty data.
