[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-6039) Potential StackOverflow in COSUpdateState

David Justamante created PDFBOX-6039:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Potential StackOverflow in COSUpdateState
                 Key: PDFBOX-6039
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-6039
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 4.0.0
            Reporter: David Justamante
         Attachments: example.pdf, patch.diff

This issue is being *manually* filed by the competition organizers. We recognize there is a number of AI generated submissions as of late. We have gone through the manual process of bug/patch validation to prevent unnecessary "noise", respecting maintainers' time.

This submission is being sent as part of DARPA's AIxCC competition. (https://aicyberchallenge.com) This issue was discovered by an autonomous Cyber Reasoning System (CRS) and validated by competition engineers. The patch was manually constructed by the competition engineers.

Unlimited recursion can cause StackOverflow in UpdateInfo. We weren't sure what the correct behavior/checks should be so we arbitrarily set a depth limit. You'll know better how to prevent this.

(AIxCC Internal: CHA-1729)
