Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Spring AI's spring-ai-pdf-document-reader package, versions 1.0.0 through 1.0.5 and 1.1.0 through 1.1.4, is vulnerable. A malicious PDF file can cause the ForkPDFLayoutTextStripper component to allocate excessive memory, which can lead to an out-of-memory condition. The source gives few details about how the file must be supplied. Upgrade to version 1.0.6 or 1.1.5, where this is fixed.
