 - Python image processing library, fork of the Python Imaging Library (PIL) This library provides extensive file format support, an efficient internal representation, and powerful image processing capabilities. There are four subpackages: tk (tk interface), qt (PIL image wrapper for Qt), devel (development) and doc (documentation).Security Fix(es):An issue was discovered in Pillow before 6.2.0.
 When reading specially crafted invalid image files, the library can either allocate very large amounts of memory or take an extremely long period of time to process the image.(CVE-2019-16865)
