      <title>GHSA-whj4-6x5x-4v2j — FITS GZIP decompression bomb in Pillow</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/ghsa-whj4-6x5x-4v2j</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; PyPI: pillow&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Impact
Pillow did not limit the amount of GZIP-compressed data read when decoding a FITS image, making it vulnerable to decompression bomb attacks. A specially crafted FITS file could cause unbounded memory consumption, leading to denial of service (OOM crash or severe performance degradation).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Patches
The amount of data read is now limited to the necessary amount.
Fixed in Pillow 12.2.0 (PR #9521).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Workarounds
Avoid Pillow &amp;gt;= 10.3.0, &amp;lt; 12.2.0
Only open [specific image formats](https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/releasenotes/8.0.0.html#image-open-add-formats-parameter), excluding FITS.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
