Hi, The following vulnerability was published for vips. CVE-2026-88360[0]: | libvips 8.19.0 contains a memory access vulnerability when | processing little-endian PFM images. If the PFM text header length | is not a multiple of four bytes, the mmap-based loader can expose | pixel data at an address that is not properly aligned for float | access. vips_avg_scan() subsequently dereferences the buffer through | a float pointer, resulting in undefined behavior and process | termination on strict-alignment architectures or UBSan-instrumented | builds, 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.
