NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream open-webui package and not the open-webui package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to version 6.7.4, an attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to large memory usage. This requires parsing the content stream using the RunLengthDecode filter. This has been fixed in pypdf 6.7.4. As a workaround, consider applying the changes from PR #3664.
