CVE-2026-27622

A flaw was found in OpenEXR, an image storage format library for the motion picture industry. An attacker can craft a malicious EXR file that, when processed, causes an integer overflow in the CompositeDeepScanLine::readPixels function. This overflow leads to an undersized buffer allocation, which can then be overrun during write operations. Successful exploitation could result in arbitrary code execution or a denial of service (DoS).
