CVE-2026-44019

Docling Core has insufficient validation of image reference URIs

Published Jul 16, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8.1 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
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.
