SCA: security update for docling (GHSA-pj2v-ggqh-cmq2)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 442602

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Docling simplifies document processing by parsing diverse formats and providing integrations with the
generative AI ecosystem. FIn versions >= 2.82.0, < 2.91.0, if the HTML backend was explicitly configured
for rendering (rendering option by default deactivated), then the Playwright-based rendering feature could
allow JavaScript execution and unrestricted network access when processing untrusted HTML documents. An
attacker could craft malicious HTML that executes arbitrary JavaScript in the rendering context or makes
unauthorized network requests to internal services, potentially leading to SSRF attacks, data
exfiltration, or remote code execution in the rendering environment. This vulnerability is fixed in
2.91.0. (CVE-2026-44016)

Solution

Update the docling library and its related packages to version 2.91.0 or later.
