CVE-2026-119204

pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.21.4, pypdf can consume excessive memory while parsing a crafted PDF page tree containing many shared resources. Page-tree flattening copies page dictionary and inherited resource entries without a document-wide entry budget, allowing the crafted resource structure to cause disproportionate allocations. This issue is fixed in version 6.21.4.

Template for a VuXML entry

Check the content

Check the version numbers before you commit this entry. Some ports share an entry in the CVE database with another port, such as sqlite2 and sqlite3. The version shown here may then be one that never existed for this port.

Ranges per package from the CVE rows that match this port, in pkg notation with the port's epoch and revision, every bound checked with pkg; one range per epoch the port actually had. make newentry in security/vuxml creates the vid.

No CPE in the port Makefile

print/py-pypdf (CPE matched by the package name) has no USES=cpe. The CVE was matched through a CPE from another source, so the package and the version range may belong to a different product. Check the CVE record before using this entry.
