Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from the ImagingFliDecode function in FliDecode.c, as shown in the commit diff where bounds checks were added via the ERR_IF_DATA_OOB macro. The original code lacked proper validation of 'data' pointer offsets when processing FLI chunks, leading to OOB reads. Multiple specific cases were patched in this function across different chunk types (BRUN, LC, SS2), all requiring boundary checks. The consistent use of the new macro across these cases confirms the function's central role in the vulnerability.
