An issue was discovered in Pillow before 8.2.0. For FLI data, FliDecode did not properly check that the block advance was non-zero, potentially leading to an infinite loop on load.

Weakness

The product contains an iteration or loop with an exit condition that cannot be reached, i.e., an infinite loop.
