| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in pypdf. A remote attacker could cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by convincing a user or automated system to process a crafted PDF file containing repeated malformed cross-reference entries. Due to an issue in the stream recovery caching mechanism, the library repeatedly reloads the entire PDF stream during each recovery attempt, resulting in excessive processing time and resource exhaustion.
