Pillow CVE-2016-3076 Heap Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Pillow is prone to a heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because they fail to perform adequate boundary-checks on user-supplied input.

An attacker can exploit this issue to cause denial-of-service conditions. Due to the nature of this issue, arbitrary code execution may be possible but this has not been confirmed.

Pillow 2.5.0 through 3.1.1 are vulnerable.
