CVE-2026-55229: Gotenberg is a Docker-powered stateless API for PDF files
CVE-2026-55229 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 7.5) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
Gotenberg is a Docker-powered stateless API for PDF files. Prior to 8.34.0, Gotenberg's /forms/libreoffice/convert endpoint allows a specially crafted document to cause LibreOffice to automatically retrieve external HTTP(S) resources and local file resources during document conversion, enabling blind SSRF and limited local file disclosure via linked image resource loading. This issue is fixed in version 8.34.0.
