Comment 2 Ben Beasley 2024-06-05 19:02:24 UTC
This bug was correctly filed, in that this package has

  Provides:       bundled(python3dist(pymongo))

However, the forked/bundled code from PyMongo is a single routine that implements the RFC4013 SASLprep algorithm, and none of the BSON-related code from pymongo is included in pdfminer. Therefore, this package is not affected by CVE-2024-5629.
