      <title>CVE-2026-48735 — pypdf: Manipulated XMP metadata streams can exhaust RAM</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-48735</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; py-pdf pypdf&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.12.1, an attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to large memory usage. This requires parsing large XMP metadata, possibly with lots of unnecessary elements. This vulnerability is fixed in 6.12.1.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
