description
pypdf releases before 6.19.0 can consume excessive memory while retrieving page labels from a specially formed PDF. An attacker may cause an application to become unavailable if it processes such a file and accesses its document page labels.
mitigation
Upgrade pypdf to version 6.19.0 or later. If an upgrade must be deferred, apply the upstream changes from PR #4096 and restrict processing of untrusted PDFs where page-label retrieval is unnecessary.
fixed in 6.19.0
outcome
Contextual: an exploit technique exists, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
