Doc Text:	A flaw was found in docling. When parsing OpenDocument files, the backend resolves image reference attributes directly as local filesystem paths without enforcing directory boundaries or URI scheme validation. An attacker could provide a crafted document that causes docling to read arbitrary local files, leading to information disclosure if sensitive files are embedded in the generated output or their existence is revealed.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-05 21:52:13 UTC

Docling simplifies document processing by parsing diverse formats and providing integrations with the generative AI ecosystem. From 2.107.0 until 2.120.3, docling/backend/opendocument_backend.py uses the xlink:href attribute value of a draw:image element as a filesystem path when the referenced part is not found in the document archive. The _image_ref_from_odf_image function reads that attacker-controlled path without a scheme check, extraction-directory confinement, or the enable_local_fetch setting used by other backends. Readable files that Pillow can decode as images are embedded in converted output, and other existing paths can be distinguished through the attempted read. This issue is fixed in 2.120.3.
