Descriptions

An uncaught exception in Elasticsearch >= 8.4.0 and < 8.11.1 occurs when an encrypted PDF is passed to an attachment processor through the REST API. The Elasticsearch ingest node that attempts to parse the PDF file will crash. This does not happen with password-protected PDF files or with unencrypted PDF files.

Se produce una excepción no detectada en Elasticsearch &gt;= 8.4.0 y &lt; 8.11.1 cuando se pasa un PDF cifrado a un procesador de archivos adjuntos a través de la API REST. El nodo de ingesta de Elasticsearch que intenta analizar el archivo PDF fallará. Esto no sucede con archivos PDF protegidos con contraseña ni con archivos PDF no cifrados.
