From versions 3.0.0 to before 3.2.9, 3.3.0 to before 3.3.11, and 3.4.0 to before 3.4.11, IDManifest::init() reconstructs strings from a prefix-compressed representation. If the previous string is longer than 255 bytes, the next string is expected to begin with a 2-byte prefix length. The code reads stringList[i][0] and stringList[i][1] without checking that the current string has at least two bytes. This issue has been patched in versions 3.2.9, 3.3.11, and 3.4.11.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `openexr >= 3.0.0, < 3.2.9`\n- `openexr >= 3.3.0, < 3.3.11`\n- `openexr >= 3.4.0, < 3.4.11`\n\n## Remediation\n\nUpgrade past the affected range:\n\n- `openexr 3.4.11`\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **RHSA-2026:39024** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream EUS (v. 10.0), Red Hat
