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 Wolfi. See How to fix? for Wolfi relevant fixed versions and status.

pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.21.4, pypdf can enter an infinite loop while opening a crafted incomplete PDF whose standard cross-reference table reaches the end of the file without a trailer. The trailer search can repeatedly rewind to the same stream position instead of terminating when parsing makes no progress, blocking the processing thread. This issue is fixed in version 6.21.4.
