pypdf: Possible infinite loop for TreeObject.insert_child
Impact
An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to an infinite loop. This requires a (usually writing) code path where TreeObject.insert_child is involved.
Patches
This has been fixed in pypdf==6.16.0.
Workarounds
If you cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR #3964.

pypdf is a free and open-source pure-python PDF library. Prior to 6.16.0, an attacker can craft a PDF whose cyclic tree structure causes pypdf/generic/_data_structures.py TreeObject.insert_child to follow /Next links indefinitely when a writing code path inserts a child, producing an infinite loop. This issue is fixed in version 6.16.0.
