pypdf: Missing stream length values ignore defined limits
### Impact An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to large memory usage, as `MAX_DECLARED_STREAM_LENGTH` is sometimes ignored. This requires parsing a content stream without a `/Length` value. ### Patches This has been fixed in [pypdf==6.13.3](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/releases/tag/6.13.3). ### Workarounds If you cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR [#3871](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/pull/3871).
