  - PyMuPDF through 1.28.2, fixed in commit b2c8f3a, contains a path traversal vulnerability in the font
    branch of extract_objects() in src/__main__.py, where the output filename is constructed by joining a
    document-controlled BaseFont name directly onto the user-supplied output directory without stripping path
    separators or dot-dot sequences. Attackers can supply a crafted PDF, EPUB, XPS, or FB2 file with a
    BaseFont name containing encoded path separators that decode to ../ sequences or absolute paths, causing
    arbitrary file writes outside the intended output directory without requiring authentication or elevated
    privileges. (CVE-2026-82035)
