PT-2026-59641

Impact An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to large memory usage. This requires parsing a content stream with a rather large /Length value, regardless of the actual data length inside the stream. Patches This has been fixed in pypdf==6.8.0. Workarounds If you canno...

CVE-2026-59936

A flaw was found in pypdf, a pure-Python PDF library. A remote attacker can craft a malicious PDF document containing an unterminated inline image within its page content stream. When a user processes this crafted PDF, such as during text extraction, the vulnerability causes an infinite loop,...

CVE-2026-59936: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption

pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.14.1, an attacker can craft a PDF with a page content stream containing a not terminated inline image, causing an infinite loop during inline image end marker detection such as when extracting page text. This issue is fixed in...

CVE-2026-59935: Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition

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 issu...

PYSEC-2026-1832 pypdf's LZWDecode streams be manipulated to exhaust RAM

Impact An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to a memory usage of up to 1 GB per stream. This requires parsing the content stream of a page using the LZWDecode filter. This is a follow up to GHSA-jfx9-29x2-rv3j to align the default limit with the one for zlib. Patche...
