CVE-2026-112399— Pillow: APNG background disposal allocates full canvas before decompression bomb check
Quick assessment
Affected
python-pillow Pillow
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.
Pillow 是一个 Python 图像处理库。在 8.1.0 至 13.0.0 版本中，Pillow 会在执行解压炸弹检测之前，先按画布完整尺寸为 APNG 的清除背景（disposal background）分配内存。攻击者可构造一个 APNG 文件，其首帧尺寸很小，但声明的画布尺寸极大，并包含背景清除操作或首帧使用 操作码。当 定位到第 0 帧时，该文件会触发 方法，进而在 内部直接分配完整画布大小的内存，而无需加载像素数据或迭代帧。此行为可能导致内存耗尽，从而引发拒绝服务（DoS）攻击。该问题已在 13.0

Vulnerability Title
Pillow: APNG background disposal allocates full canvas before decompression bomb check
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Pillow is a Python imaging library. From 8.1.0 until 13.0.0, Pillow can allocate an APNG disposal background at the full canvas size before applying the decompression-bomb check. A crafted APNG with a small first frame, a very large declared canvas, and background disposal or first-frame OP_PREVIOUS reaches PngImageFile._seek while Image.open() positions frame zero. The full-canvas allocation occurs inside Image.open() without requiring pixel loading or frame iteration. This can exhaust memory and deny service. This issue is fixed in version 13.0.0.
