CVE-2026-54082 Details
Description
veraPDF validation model is an implementation of the veraPDF validation model. From 1.25.73 until 1.30.2 and 1.31.71, veraPDF-validation contains an XML External Entity vulnerability in PDFAValidator.validate(...) and GFPDAcroForm.getdynamicRender(), where default DocumentBuilderFactory parsing of rich-text annotation or form-field values and XFA configurations in untrusted PDFs can allow local file disclosure and outbound network requests. This issue is fixed in versions 1.30.2 and 1.31.71.
A XML External Entity (XXE) vulnerability has been identified in the veraPDF validation model, specifically in versions 1.25.73 prior to 1.30.2 and 1.31.71. The vulnerability arises from the default DocumentBuilderFactory's handling of rich-text annotations, form-field values, and XFA configurations in untrusted PDFs. This can lead to local file disclosure and unauthorized outbound network requests, depending on the runtime environment. The issue is present in the PDFAValidator.validate() method and the GFPDAcroForm.getdynamicRender() method.
Users can upgrade to veraPDF validation model versions 1.30.2 or 1.31.71, where this vulnerability has been patched.
