Summary
Tinyexr through 3.2.0 contains a heap out-of-bounds read in ParseEXRMultipartHeaderFromMemory() caused by a stale remaining-size value (CWE-125). An attacker can supply a crafted multi-part EXR file whose later part headers bypass ReadAttribute() bounds checks, so the flaw can crash the application or leak adjacent heap memory into attribute values.
