**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
PoDoFo version 0.9.6

For PoDoFo version 0.9.6, consider avoiding the use of the `PoDoFo::PdfVariant::DelayedLoad` function until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the processing of crafted files to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
