   Hi,   
      
   The following vulnerability was published for pypdf.   
      
   CVE-2026-27025[0]:   
   | pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to   
   | 6.7.1, an attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which   
   | leads to long runtimes and large memory consumption. This requires   
   | parsing the /ToUnicode entry of a font with unusually large values,   
   | for example during text extraction. This vulnerability is fixed in   
   | 6.7.1.   
      
      
   If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the   
   CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
