  - Pillow is a Python imaging library. From 7.2.0 until 13.0.0, Pillow can enter an infinite loop while
    determining the frame count of a MIC image. MicImageFile inherits TIFF frame traversal, but
    MicImageFile.tell reports the OLE stream index and its seek() resets TIFF frame state, so an embedded TIFF
    with at least three IFDs never advances. When an application with olefile installed reads n_frames or
    saves all frames from a crafted MIC file, the non-advancing traversal can hold a worker at full CPU
    indefinitely. This issue is fixed in version 13.0.0. (CVE-2026-112390)
