      <title>CVE-2026-119206 — pypdf: Possible long runtimes when retrieving page labels</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-119206</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 6.21.3, pypdf can take excessive time to retrieve page labels from a crafted PDF containing a flat page-label number tree with many ranges. The page_labels property resolves each page independently and repeatedly scans the same /Nums array from the beginning, causing work to grow with both the page count and the number of label ranges. This issue is fixed in version 6.21.3.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>GHSA-42gh-23hr-vphw — pypdf has possible long runtimes when retrieving page labels</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/ghsa-42gh-23hr-vphw</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; PyPI: pypdf&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Impact&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to large runtimes. This requires retrieving the page labels of a file.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Patches&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This has been fixed in [pypdf==6.21.3](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/releases/tag/6.21.3).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Workarounds&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR [#4251](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/pull/4251).&lt;/p&gt;</description>
