Summary

The docling and docling-slim packages from 2.83.0 before 2.131.0 send page images to the configured KServe v2 OCR endpoint even when the caller sets enable_remote_services to false. The KServeV2OcrModel class does not check this policy setting, and the pipeline does not pass it to the OCR factory (CWE-693). The destination is set by the caller, not chosen by an attacker, but remote OCR still runs in setups that rely on remote services being disabled.

Description from the CNA

Docling simplifies document processing by parsing diverse formats and providing integrations with the generative AI ecosystem. From 2.83.0 until 2.131.0, the KServeV2OcrModel class defined in docling/models/stages/ocr/kserve_v2_ocr_model.py sends page images to its configured endpoint without checking the pipeline_options.enable_remote_services setting, even when the caller sets that policy control to false. The StandardPdfPipeline._make_ocr_model method also fails to pass the flag into the OCR factory, allowing remote OCR processing in configurations that rely on remote services being disabled. The destination is configured by the caller rather than selected by an attacker. This issue is fixed in 2.131.0.
