pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.16.1, an attacker can craft a PDF that causes pypdf/_page.py PageObject._extract_text and PageObject.extract_xform_text to traverse a directed acyclic graph of reused form XObjects in which each form invokes a child multiple times, creating exponentially many traversal paths and causing long runtimes and large memory consumption. This issue is fixed in version 6.16.1.

- GHSA-763m-79hh-57f2pypdf: Possible long runtimes/large memory usage when extracting XForm objects2026-09-01ghsa · osvUS
### Impact An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to long runtimes and large memory consumption. This requires extracting the text of a page with lots of XForm objects, where some of them might be re-used. ### Patches This has been fixed in [pypdf==6.16.1](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/releases/tag/6.16.1). ### Workarounds If you cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR [#3966](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/pull/3966).
