Medium (6.9) in pypdf project pypdf. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in pypdf 6.7.1.
pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.7.1, an attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to long runtimes and large memory consumption. This requires parsing the /ToUnicode entry of a font with unusually large values, for example during text extraction. This vulnerability is fixed in 6.7.1.
