AutoFix: Unrestricted file content processing
Category: security
Severity: medium
Issue
The extract_text function processes file content without size limits or content validation. Large files could cause memory exhaustion, and malicious PDF/DOCX files could exploit parser vulnerabilities in pypdf or python-docx libraries.
Fix
Added file size validation at the start of extract_text() to prevent memory exhaustion attacks. Added page count limits for PDF processing to prevent resource exhaustion. Wrapped PDF and DOCX parsing in try-catch blocks to handle parser vulnerabilities gracefully by converting exceptions to ValueError with descriptive messages, preventing crashes and information disclosure.
