pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. An attacker who uses a vulnerability present in versions prior to 6.10.2 can craft a PDF which leads to long runtimes. This requires loading a PDF with a large trailer /Size value in incremental mode. This has been fixed in pypdf 6.10.2. As a workaround, one may apply the changes from the patch manually.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service via algorithmic complexity in pypdf versions prior to 6.10.2 allows local attackers to cause long runtimes by crafting a PDF with an excessively large trailer /Size value when loaded in incremental mode. The vulnerability requires user interaction to load the malicious PDF and results in availability degradation rather than data compromise. …
