pypdf: pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library
CVE-2026-119209 is fixed in 2 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-119209, released November 6, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.21.3, pypdf can consume excessive memory while opening a crafted PDF containing cross-reference streams that declare very large entry counts. Highly compressible streams and /Prev chains can multiply the number of parsed entries across a document, while negative /Index counts can bypass the existing per-stream clamp. This issue is fixed in version 6.21.3.
