Summary

Vulnerability in docling-core (CVE-2026-44019). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Mitigation: upgrade to 2.74.1 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

Docling Core defines core data types and transformations for the document processing application Docling. In versions 2.5.0 and above, prior to 2.74.1, docling-core could allow local file:// image references and accepted inline data: content without a decoded-size limit. In applications that accept untrusted image references, this may allow access to local files readable by the process or excessive memory use from large inline payloads. This issue has been fixed in version 2.74.1.
