> Description from CVE
> In Apache PDFBox 1.8.0 to 1.8.14 and 2.0.0RC1 to 2.0.10, a carefully crafted (or fuzzed) file can trigger an infinite loop which leads to an out of memory exception in Apache PDFBox's AFMParser.
> Explanation
> The Apache PDFBox is vulnerable to Uncontrolled Resource Consumption ('Resource Exhaustion'). A successful exploit could trigger an infinite loop scenario that may lead to an out-of-memory exception in the AFMParser component, resulting in a DoS condition.
> Detection
> The application is vulnerable by using this component.
> Recommendation
> We recommend upgrading to a version of this component that is not vulnerable to this specific issue.
> Categories
