Xpdfreader: >> Xpdf >> 4.00 Security Vulnerabilities
An excessively large PDF page size (found in fuzz testing, unlikely in normal PDF files) can result in a divide-by-zero in Xpdf's text extraction code.
This is related to CVE-2022-30524, but the problem here is caused by a very large page size, rather than by a very large character coordinate.

An issue was discovered in Xpdf 4.00. XRef::readXRefStream in XRef.cc allows attackers to launch a denial of service (Integer Overflow) via a crafted /Size value in a pdf file, as demonstrated by pdftohtml. This is mainly caused by the program attempting a malloc operation for a large amount of memory.
