pypdf and PyPDF2 possible Infinite Loop when a comment isn't followed by a character
Impact
An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to an infinite loop if __parse_content_stream is executed. This infinite loop blocks the current process and can utilize a single core of the CPU by 100%. It does not affect memory usage. That is, for example, the case if the user extracted text from such a PDF.
Example Code and a PDF that causes the issue:
The issue was introduced with https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/pull/969
Patches
The issue was fixed with https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf/pull/1828
Workarounds
It is recommended to upgrade to pypdf>=3.9.0. PyPDF2 users should migrate to pypdf.
If you cannot update your version of pypdf, you should modify pypdf/generic/_data_structures.py:
