Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process. pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.14.1, an attacker can craft a PDF with a page content stream containing a not terminated inline image, causing an infinite loop during inline image end marker detection such as when extracting page text. This issue is fixed in version 6.14.1.
Version 6.14.2 is now in rawhide. For Fedora 44/43, I'm reluctant to upgrade them since it would be upgrading 2 major versions (from 4.2.0 to 6.14.2) in a stable release.
