Description SMASH SMASH 2023-11-06 04:15:18 UTC
An issue was discovered in Pillow before 10.0.0. It is a Denial of Service that
uncontrollably allocates memory to process a given task, potentially causing a
service to crash by having it run out of memory. This occurs for truetype in
ImageFont when textlength in an ImageDraw instance operates on a long text
argument.
