Can use the attached document (after unzip) and following code to reproduce. Tested in v24.10.0.

var bytes = File.ReadAllBytes(@"input.doc");
using MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
ms.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);

Aspose.Words.Document document = new Aspose.Words.Document(ms);

using FileStream pdf = new FileStream(@"output.pdf", FileMode.Create);
document.Save(pdf, Aspose.Words.SaveFormat.Pdf);

When will the Document class have a SaveAsync(..., CancellationToken) method like Aspose PDF.NET does? If we have to expect the Document.Save() method to hang indefinitely for some documents (and consume considerable CPU until the thread is killed), we will be forced to run Aspose in a separate process that can be Kill()ed.
