    pypdf is an A pure-python PDF library capable of splitting, merging, cropping, and transforming PDF files

    Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Handling of Highly Compressed Data (Data Amplification) via the LZWDecode process. An attacker can exhaust system memory by crafting a PDF that triggers excessive memory allocation during content stream parsing. This is only exploitable if the content stream of a page uses the LZWDecode filter.

    How to fix Improper Handling of Highly Compressed Data (Data Amplification)?

    Upgrade pypdf to version 6.4.0 or higher.
