Medium [CVE-2026-59935] Denial of Service via crafted PDF with unterminated inline image
CVE-2026-59935Source published Source updated
pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.14.2, an attacker can craft a PDF with a page content stream containing a not terminated inline image that uses the ASCII85 or ASCIIHex filters, causing an infinite loop during parsing such as when extracting page text. This issue is fixed in version 6.14.2. When this crafted PDF is parsed, it can lead to an infinite loop, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) due to resource exhaustion. This Moderate flaw in the pypdf library allows a remote attacker to trigger a denial of service by providing a specially crafted PDF file. While requiring user interaction to process a malicious PDF, the issue can lead to service unavailability in applications utilizing pypdf for PDF processing. Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 6.5…
