Technical details
The plugin factory in base_factory.py calls load_setuptools_entrypoints() before checking the allow_external_plugins setting, causing all modules registered in the Docling entry-point group to be imported at startup regardless of configuration. An attacker who can install a malicious package in the Python environment can execute arbitrary code at import time, which runs before the namespace filter can prevent the plugin from being recognized. The vulnerability requires local package installation capability but affects all users of Docling with that compromised dependency.
