Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for openexr.

CVE-2026-88384[0]:
| OpenEXR 3.4.14 contains a NULL Pointer Dereference in the C++
| attribute parsing path. A specially crafted EXR file containing an
| unknown-type attribute with dataSize set to zero causes the parser
| to create an opaque attribute with a NULL packed_data pointer. The
| OpaqueAttribute constructor passes the NULL pointer to memcpy()
| without validating the zero-size condition, resulting in undefined
| behavior and process termination, leading to denial of service.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
