OpenStack Ironic: Pre-Validation Checksum Calculation allows Denial of Service (DoS) via Infinite Block Devices

In OpenStack Ironic through 35.x before a3f6d73, during image handling, an infinite loop in checksum calculations can occur via the file:///dev/zero URL...

Pillow has a PDF Parsing Trailer Infinite Loop (DoS)

ImpactAn attacker can supply a malicious PDF that causes the process to hang indefinitely, consuming 100% CPU and making the application unresponsive. PatchesPatched version: 12.2.0.PdfParser introduced in Pillow 4.2.0 follows Prev pointers in PDF trailers to read cross-reference sections. If...

PYSEC-2026-3012 pypdf: Possible infinite loop during recovery attempts in DictionaryObject.read_from_stream

Impact An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to an infinite loop. This requires reading a file in non-strict mode. Patches This has been fixed in pypdf==6.9.2. Workarounds If users cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR 3693...
