Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Pillow versions 11.2.1 through 12.1.x
Description Passing nested lists as coordinates to APIs that accept coordinates, such as 'ImagePath.Path', 'ImageDraw.ImageDraw.polygon', and 'ImageDraw.ImageDraw.line', can cause a heap buffer overflow. This occurs because nested lists are recursively unpacked beyond the allocated buffer. A heap buffer overflow is a memory corruption issue where data is written past the end of a buffer allocated on the heap, potentially leading to crashes or arbitrary code execution.
Recommendations Update to version 12.2.0.
