CVE-2026-113793

A flaw was found in pypdf. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a Denial of Service DoS by providing a specially crafted PDF document containing cyclic tree structures. When an application attempts to remove an object from the cyclic structure, the library enters an infinite loop,...
