SCA: security update for docling, docling-slim (GHSA-x3q2-h9hx-4r4j)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 473753

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 2.94.0 until 2.132.0, callers that opt into
LatexBackendOptions(tikz_engine="tectonic") invoke docling/backend/latex/engines/tectonic.py to compile an
untrusted TikZ body and document preamble without restricting TeX file primitives including \openin and
\openout. Crafted input can read files available to the converter and create or overwrite writable files,
and enabling the tikz_engine_allow_shell_escape option additionally permits shell commands through TeX.
The default configuration, which does not enable Tectonic rendering, is not affected. This vulnerability
is fixed in 2.132.0. (CVE-2026-105744)

Solution

Update the docling library and its related packages to version 2.132.0 or later.
