CVE-2021-28675: Pillow denial of service

June 8, 2021 (updated October 9, 2024)

An issue was discovered in Pillow before 8.2.0. PSDImagePlugin.PsdImageFile lacked a sanity check on the number of input layers relative to the size of the data block. This could lead to a DoS on Image.open prior to Image.load.
