{"schema":"threatline.record/2","record":{"id":"CVE-2026-114609","aliases":["GHSA-rw7v-4hrq-x6r9"],"summary":"fpdf2 implicitly loads external URLs and local image paths when rendering attacker-controlled content","details":"fpdf2 is a PDF creation library for Python. Prior to 2.8.8, fpdf2's shared image loader automatically dereferences attacker-controlled HTTP(S) URLs and raw local paths supplied through FPDF.image(), FPDF.write_html() HTML <img src> values, SVG <image href> or xlink:href values, and template image fields. This can cause outbound requests to attacker-selected internal or external services and local file open attempts, although local content is exposed only when it is a valid supported image or SVG resource. file:// URLs are not specially handled, so the local-path case requires a raw filesystem path. This issue is fixed in version 2.8.8.","categories":["Unclassified"],"product":"fpdf2","vendor":"py-pdf","ecosystem":null,"affected_ranges":[{"source":"CVE List","source_url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-114609","source_modified_at":"2026-10-22T17:18:22.802Z","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:42:43.628194Z","product":"fpdf2","vendor":"py-pdf","versions":[{"version":"< 2.8.8","status":"affected"}],"defaultStatus":null}],"fixed_versions":[],"cvss":5.8,"severity":"Medium","kev":{"listed":false},"epss":{"probability":0.00252,"percentile":0.1575,"score_date":"2026-10-23"},"published_at":"2026-10-22T17:18:22.802Z","modified_at":"2026-10-22T17:18:22.802Z","provenance":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-114609","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:42:43.628194Z","source_modified_at":"2026-10-22T17:18:22.802Z"},{"source":"EPSS","url":"https://api.first.org/data/v1/epss?cve=CVE-2026-114609","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:42:43.628194Z","source_modified_at":"2026-10-23"}],"sources":["CVE List","EPSS"],"references":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/py-pdf/fpdf2/security/advisories/GHSA-rw7v-4hrq-x6r9","tags":["x_refsource_CONFIRM"]},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/py-pdf/fpdf2/pull/1824","tags":["x_refsource_MISC"]},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/py-pdf/fpdf2/pull/1857","tags":["x_refsource_MISC"]},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/py-pdf/fpdf2/commit/0d27190a8c907e02ebe9cd881471a14d0622b432","tags":["x_refsource_MISC"]},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/py-pdf/fpdf2/commit/6e23f610b7946e96e9a5dd0535dcbfbe7ac1397d","tags":["x_refsource_MISC"]},{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://github.com/py-pdf/fpdf2/releases/tag/2.8.8","tags":["x_refsource_MISC"]}],"locations":[],"motoko_assessment":{"status":"requires_architecture_review","automatic_remediation":false},"cve_state":"PUBLISHED","cvss_source":"CVE List","classification":{"method":"product-first software-layer rules","rules_version":"2.1","matched_on":null,"confidence":"unknown","reviewed":false},"change_timestamp":"2026-10-22T17:18:22.802Z","content_hash":"161340e9f0d67fefc2db29fca2322302e715b786661e2c95f196ee71cc87f4f7"}}
