Package : freecad CVE ID : CVE-2026-34398 CVE-2026-34399 CVE-2026-34789 CVE-2026-73233 CVE-2026-73234 CVE-2026-73235 Debian Bug : 1144349

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in FreeCAD, a parametric 3D CAD modeller, which may result in the execution of arbitrary code, the disclosure of local files or requests to arbitrary hosts when a crafted FCStd document or template is processed.

For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.0+dfsg-8+deb13u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your freecad packages.

For the detailed security status of freecad please refer to its security tracker page at:
