SCA: security update for docling, docling-slim (GHSA-9jxx-vjrv-h2rq)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473784

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. From 2.27.0 until 2.131.0, Docling plugin factories in
docling/models/factories/base_factory.py call load_setuptools_entrypoints() before applying the
allow_external_plugins setting, so every module registered in the Docling entry-point group is imported
even when external plugins are disabled. An installed third-party or compromised package can therefore
execute import-time code when Docling starts, while the subsequent namespace filter misleadingly reports
that the plugin was not loaded. This issue is fixed in 2.131.0. (CVE-2026-105745)

Solution

Update the docling library and its related packages to version 2.131.0 or later.
