description
Pillow versions 12.0.0 through 12.x contain a null-pointer dereference in image merge handling. An attacker may crash a process that loads a specially formed IPTC image when the application processes attacker-controlled image files; applications that directly invoke the affected merge functionality may also be exposed.
mitigation
Upgrade the Pillow pip package to version 13.0.0 or later. Until upgraded, avoid loading untrusted IPTC image files in affected applications.
fixed in 13.0.0
outcome
Contextual check: a technique exists and was validated, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
