Details
In the ihevcd_parse_slice_header function of ihevcd_parse_slice_header.c a slice address of zero after the first slice could result in an infinite loop. This could lead to a remote denial of service of a critical system process with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Product: Android. Versions: 5.1.1, 6.0, 6.0.1, 7.0, 7.1.1, 7.1.2, 8.0, 8.1. Android ID: A-64380202.

VLAI
Summary
pypdf has a possible infinite loop when processing TreeObject
Details
Impact
An attacker who uses this vulnerability can craft a PDF which leads to an infinite loop. This requires accessing the children of a TreeObject, for example as part of outlines.
Patches
This has been fixed in pypdf==6.7.1.
Workarounds
If you cannot upgrade yet, consider applying the changes from PR #3645.
