{"id":"CVE-2026-112896","url":"https://www.cyber-defence.io/tools/cve/CVE-2026-112896","generatedAt":"2026-10-28T03:58:18.874Z","title":"An application that re-encodes the attacker's TIFF with libtiff can trigger the out-of-bounds read.","description":"Pillow is a Python imaging library. Prior to 13.0.0, Pillow's TIFF encoder can read beyond a ColorMap buffer when retained TIFF metadata has a plane size inconsistent with BitsPerSample. A small TIFF can be opened normally and then retain a crafted ColorMap that is reused when the image is saved. An application that re-encodes the attacker's TIFF with libtiff can trigger the out-of-bounds read. This can disclose heap memory in the output or crash the process. This issue is fixed in version 13.0.0.","published":"2026-10-19T22:17:10.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-27T14:55:49.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"security-advisories@github.com","cvss":{"version":"4.0","score":8.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/M"},"cwe":["CWE-125"],"affected":["python/pillow"],"epss":{"score":0.00493,"percentile":0.42153,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[{"date":"2026-10-20","score":0.00291,"percentile":0.20418}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.49%).
