CVE-2026-44023
Docling Core: Unsafe remote filename resolution
Description
### Impact In versions `>= 1.5.0, < 2.74.1`, `docling-core` did not sufficiently restrict remote request destinations and could resolve a server-provided `Content-Disposition` to a local path in an unsafe manner. In applications that accept untrusted URLs, this could allow SSRF attacks targeting local files outside the user-defined cache directory. ### Patches Patched in `docling-core` `2.74.1`. The fix adds stricter validation for remote destinations and normalizes server-provided filenames before use. Users should upgrade to: - `docling-core` `>= 2.74.1` ### Workarounds If upgrading is not immediately possible, avoid passing untrusted URLs into remote fetch functionality. ### References - Fix release: [`v2.74.1`](https://github.com/docling-project/docling-core/releases/tag/v2.74.1)
