pypdf is a pure-python PDF library capable of splitting, merging, cropping, and transforming the pages of PDF files.

It does not affect memory usage. This issue has been addressed in PR 808 and versions from 1.27.9 include this fix. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
