CVE-2026-63420: OpenImageIO: PSD RawColor indexed image out-of-bounds read in `interleave_row`
OpenImageIO is a toolset for reading, writing, and manipulating image files of any image file format relevant to VFX / animation. Prior to 3.0.21.0, 3.1.16.0, and 3.2.0.3-beta1, An indexed psd with transparency metadata creates fewer stored channelbuffers than the spec.nchannels value advertised by the rawcolor path. when oiio:rawcolor or psd:rawdata is enabled, psdinput::readnativescanline() passes spec.nchannels to psdinput::interleaverow(), which indexes beyond channelbuffers, resulting in a heap out-of-bounds read and process crash. The affected implementation is identified by src/psd.imageio/psdinput.cpp, PSDInput::readnativescanline(), PSDInput::interleaverow(), oiio:RawColor, psd:RawData, channelbuffers, and spec.nchannels, which define the relevant source path, functions, state, and trigger. This issue is fixed in versions 3.0.21.0, 3.1.16.0, and 3.2.0.3-beta1.

Event History
Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions are required to trigger the crash?
An attacker needs to supply an indexed PSD containing transparency metadata and have it processed through the PSD raw-color path. The vulnerable path is used when oiio:rawcolor or psd:rawdata is enabled, and successful exploitation also requires a user to process the crafted image.
What is the practical impact of this issue?
The out-of-bounds read can cause the OpenImageIO process to crash. The provided data identifies availability impact only; it does not describe confidentiality or integrity impact.
Which releases contain the fix?
The issue is fixed in OpenImageIO 3.0.21.0, 3.1.16.0, and 3.2.0.3-beta1. Versions prior to those releases are affected.
