CVE-2026-47214: Docling: Unsafe URI and Path Handling in HTML Backend
(updated )
The HTML backend did not perform sufficient validation during resource handling:
- Accepted
file://URIs enabling local file system access whenenable_local_fetch=True - Path resolution allowed traversal outside intended directories via
../sequences and absolute paths - Did not block internal network resources under
enable_remote_fetch=True - HTTP redirects were not validated, potentially redirecting to unintended schemes
- No resource limits for remote image downloads and
data:URIs
