  - OpenEXR provides the specification and reference implementation of the EXR file format, an image storage
    format for the motion picture industry. From version 3.4.0 to before version 3.4.8, sensitive information
    from heap memory may be leaked through the decoded pixel data (information disclosure). This occurs under
    default settings; simply reading a malicious EXR file is sufficient to trigger the issue, without any user
    interaction. This issue has been patched in version 3.4.8. (CVE-2026-34543)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
