pypdf: Possible long runtimes/large memory usage for large CID font width ranges

CVE-2026-71852 / GHSA-fwg2-594c-jp42

More information

Details

Impact

An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to long runtimes and large memory consumption. This requires parsing the font width entries of a font with unusually large values, for example during text extraction.

Patches

This has been fixed in pypdf==6.15.0.

Workarounds

If you cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR #​3946.

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 4.8 / 10 (Medium)
  • Vector String: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
