The old Pentacon lenses are notorious for sticky apertures due to oil residue on the aperture blades. Medex and Bob 256 already gave hints that will help you diagnose the problem. If you still experience problems and the aperture does not close even if you press the pin, this might be the cause.
If so, this is relatively easy to fix. you need to disassemble the lens until you get to the aperture blades. The following video gives you a good idea about how to proceed:
You need some cotton buds and 99.X% alcohol.
The most minimal surgery requires disassembly until you get to the aperture blades, e.g. until 4:07 mins. Whether you disassemble the front or the back doesn't matter. It's best to remove both sides of the lens assembly, so you don't dirtify the lenses as you clean, but sometimes it's easier to use the most minimally invasive technique if you are not experienced in disassembling lenses. Then you dip your cotton buds into the alcohol and carefully drip it onto the aperture diaphragm. This should be enough to enable the aperture blades to open whilst the alcohol is has not evaporated, but you still need to clean off the oil. Then you use alcohol-dipped cotton buds to carefully, gently, clean off the oil off the blades. Open and close the blades carefully as you clean the lens, make sure they don't jam, replacing the cotton buds when the get too dirty. Keep doing this until the cotton buds remain relatively clean, making sure you dislodge the oil on the other side as well. Use dry cotton buds to wipe off any excess alcohol that doesn't evaporate and to check that you removed the oil and the blades are functioning again. Once you are happy with the result, check that the lens elements are clean and you can reassemble the lens and use it for many more years.
Of course, it would be better to fully disassemble the lens aperture blades, and give them a proper soak and clean, but if you haven't disassembled lenses and aperture blades before, there are too many things that could go wrong and can be incredibly fiddly. The above method tends to work well with old East German lenses that are not worth enough to warrant sending off to a proper repair facility.
