OpenImageIO is a toolset for reading, writing, and manipulating image files of any image file format relevant to VFX / animation. Prior to 3.0.18.0 and 3.1.13.0, softimageinput.cpp:469 (mixed RLE) and :345 (pure RLE) do not clamp the run length to remaining scanline width before writing pixels. The raw packet path (line 403) correctly clamps with std::min, but RLE paths skip this check. A crafted .pic file causes heap overflow up to 65535 bytes. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.0.18.0 and 3.1.13.0.

CVE-2026-43903 [HIGH] OpenImageIO vulnerabilities
Title: OpenImageIO vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in OpenImageIO.
It was discovered that OpenImageIO incorrectly performed bounds
checking when processing SGI files. An attacker could possibly
use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2026-43903)
It was discovered that OpenImageIO incorrectly handled run-length
encoding when processing Softimage PIC files. An attacker
could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or
execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-43904)
It was discovered that OpenImageIO incorrectly validated subimage
metadata when processing HEIF files. An attacker could
possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute
arbitrary code. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu
24.04 LT
