Synopsis

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05, has python-pillow packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- 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)

- libImaging/PcxDecode.c in Pillow before 6.2.2 has a PCX P mode buffer overflow. (CVE-2020-5312)
