High · 7.5 CVE-2026-46599 EUVD-2026-33432GHSA-q675-qj96-32m9GO-2026-5032

Excessive resource consumption in PackBits decompression in golang.org/x/image/tiff

Published May 29, 2026 · Updated Jun 1, 2026 · Assigned by Go

Description

The TIFF decoder does not place a limit on the size of PackBits-compressed data. A maliciously-crafted image can exploit this to cause a small image (both in terms of pixel width/height and encoded size) to make the decoder decode large amounts of compressed data.
