Fuzzed inputs drove one check-one process to 2-6 GB (the 16 GB CI runner
running two of them was killed every night). Three causes, each with a test:
- lopdf (bootstrap inspector) sized PNG predictor rows from /Columns before
reading data: /Columns 4294967295 allocated two 4 GiB rows. Vendored lopdf
0.45.0 refuses rows longer than the data (and uses saturating row widths);
its load-time stream decoding also gets a 256 MiB limit (it had none).
- hayro sized a tiling pattern's cell pixmap from /XStep x scale, bounded only
by u16: a step far beyond /BBox allocated 2 GB. The vendored patch keeps
the cell within 3000 px a side, lowering the resolution instead.
- cos decoded cross-reference streams up to the general 1 GiB limit; they now
stop at what 8,388,607 objects' rows can hold (~200 MB at most), and the
section is reconstructed (logged) instead.
On the nightly's seed (41) the worst captured input fell from 6.2 GB to 6 MB,
and a 300 s fuzz run had no process above 300 MB (before: many at 2-5 GB).
