A high-severity vulnerability, EUVD-2026-104603, has been catalogued in Pillow, the widely used Python image library. The flaw, scored 9.2 out of 10 under CVSS v3.1, is a heap buffer overflow in the _tiffWriteProc function, triggered when saving TIFF images to a BytesIO stream. Security teams are being urged to review the advisory and check whether their applications use the affected code path.
Why now: Pillow is one of the most widely deployed Python imaging libraries, so a critical vulnerability in it raises immediate patching concerns across many projects.
