             Summary: PDFBox 3.0 regression: duplicate references in dictionary 
values
                 Key: PDFBOX-5714
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-5714
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Writing
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0 PDFBox
         Environment: macOS 14, Java 11
            Reporter: Derek Wickern
         Attachments: PdfboxAnnotationRegressionTest.java, 
basic-sticky-note.fdf, out-pdfbox2.pdf, out-pdfbox3.pdf, w4.pdf

{{basic-sticky-note.fdf }}contains an Acrobat "sticky note", which consists of 
two annotations: text (2 0 obj) and popup (3 0 obj). The annotations reference 
each other. The text annotation's "/Popup 3 0 R" references the popup 
annotation. The popup's "/Parent 2 0 R" references the text annotation.

 
{code:java}
2 0 obj
<<... /Popup 3 0 R ...>>
endobj
3 0 obj
<<... /Parent 2 0 R ...>>
endobj
{code}
 

The attached Java program copies those annotations onto {{{}w4.pdf{}}}, saves 
the file, then reads it back to verify the result.
h3. Expected Behavior

{{out-pdfbox2.pdf}} is the output using pdfbox 2.0.30. The annotation objects 
are reassigned to some available ID:

 
{code:java}
38 0 obj
<< ... /Popup 39 0 R ... >>
endobj
39 0 obj
<< ... /Parent 38 0 R ...>>
endobj
{code}
 

The program outputs:
{code:java}
correct parent? true
correct popup? true{code}
h3. Actual Behavior

{{out-pdfbox3.pdf}} is the output using pdfbox 3.0.0. The objects are assigned 
a new ID but their references are unchanged, so the /Popup and /Parent 
reference some other arbitrary object:

 
{code:java}
3473 0 obj
<< ... /Popup 3 0 R ... >>
endobj
3474 0 obj
<< ... /Parent 2 0 R ...>>
endobj
{code}
 

The program crashes since the dereferenced /Parent is not an annotation:
{code:java}
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: class 
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.annotation.PDAnnotationUnknown cannot be 
cast to class 
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.annotation.PDAnnotationMarkup 
(org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.annotation.PDAnnotationUnknown and 
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.annotation.PDAnnotationMarkup are in 
unnamed module of loader 'app')
    at 
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.annotation.PDAnnotationPopup.getParent(PDAnnotationPopup.java:99)
    at 
PdfboxAnnotationRegressionTest.main(PdfboxAnnotationRegressionTest.java:45) 
{code}
