How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:16.04 openexr to version 2.2.0-10ubuntu2.6+esm2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openexr package and not the openexr package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:16.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

An integer overflow could occur when OpenEXR processes a crafted file on systems where size_t < 64 bits. This could cause an invalid bytesPerLine and maxBytesPerLine value, which could lead to problems with application stability or lead to other attack paths.
