This image poses a critical security risk and must not be used in production, especially as an internet-facing service. An attacker could exploit CVE-2025-66516 (Apache Tika XXE) to exfiltrate sensitive data or perform internal reconnaissance via malicious PDFs, and leverage CVE-2026-42581 (Netty request smuggling) to bypass security controls or poison caches. Disabling the ingest attachment plugin would fully eliminate the Tika vulnerabilities, but Netty flaws require urgent patching. Immediate remediation is required before any production use.
