DescriptionCVE.org

OpenEXR is the reference implementation and specification for the EXR image format, widely used in the motion picture industry. In versions 3.1.0 through 3.2.10, 3.3.0 through 3.3.12, and 3.4.0 through 3.4.13, an int32_t multiplication in OpenEXRCore's unpack_sample_table() can overflow while decoding a crafted deep tiled EXR file, producing an invalid pointer that leads to a read from an unmapped memory address and a crash. Because the overflow occurs in the standard decoding path (exr_decoding_run), any application that decodes deep tiled EXR files is affected. This issue is fixed in versions 3.2.11, 3.3.13, and 3.4.14.

AnalysisAI

Integer overflow in OpenEXR's deep tiled image decoder crashes any application that opens a crafted EXR file, affecting versions 3.1.0 through 3.4.13 across all three maintained release branches. The overflow occurs in OpenEXRCore's unpack_sample_table() function during the standard exr_decoding_run path, meaning no non-default configuration is required - only that the file uses the deep tiled variant of the format. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The target application must decode deep tiled EXR files - a specific sub-format identified by the DEEPTILE tile description type in the EXR header, used for volumetric compositing data. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment CVSS 5.5 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) accurately reflects a file-parsing DoS with no code execution and no privilege escalation. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade to OpenEXR 3.2.11, 3.3.13, or 3.4.14, which resolve the overflow by widening the affected integer types from int32_t to int64_t (confirmed in commits 5e55a64, a6cf183, and e2adb5b). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
