"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.
- Pillow is a Python imaging library. From 12.0.0 until 13.0.0, Pillow's Image.merge() can dereference a
null image8 plane. Validation skips the first input band, allowing a 32-bit integer or floating-point
image backed by image32 storage to be merged as a narrower multiband image. A crafted IPTC file can reach
this path when an application opens and loads it, or a caller can invoke Image.merge() directly with such
a first band. This causes a native process crash. This issue is fixed in version 13.0.0. (CVE-2026-112405)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
